Default Anyone every try Spring Struts??

I think these look sick!! I'm currently running 10.5" slammers, i think they only have about an inch of travel. So how different would these feel.

i can't find any reviews, the roads are really bad where i live but would love to try these.

A bit of an improvement over rigid struts, but obviously it won't be that comfortable of a ride. If you were going the strut route, definitely give 'em a shot.

I have 2 pairs and these are the best struts. Way better than solid ones. Looks great really cleans up the backend. I'll sell a pair of black ones 11.3 eye to eye for 100
