Thanks, Bill, for the reply.
How do you see the SPAX shocks without the adjustable spring seats being a
disadvantage. Is it a suspension performance issue, of simply a ride height
adjustability issue?
Sounds like your car is where I"m headed with mine. I don't want to be
beatup and bruised during everyday driving, but I feel these cars were built
to be sporty, and tweaked to be so. What was your source for the Spax?
Have you heard any other Spitfire owners that would choose the Koni's over
the SPAX?
Thanks for the reply,
