Default anyone running Progressive 418 shocks?

I am looking into purchasing the progressive 418 shocks. My question is are they worth the money? Do you like the ride? What size should I go with 12's or 11.5's. Thanks

Ive had them on my Street Bob for the past two years and I like them very much. Have a great ride and i love the way they look. If you want to lower the rear a little go with the 11.5's. A 1/2" less at the shock translates to 3/4" of lowering at the axle. So its not a big deal and should look great. Mine are 12's because I didnt want to lose any ride clearance....i did however drop the rear fender 2 1/2"

I know a couple of guys that have them and they seem good for the price.
