Some people believe the spring stiffness degrades on some brands with wear. Leaving the springs bouncier and sloppier in handling
I remember at least one member on here that felt that way about their springtechs after awhile

Makes sense, its just most ppl wont notice as it happens slowly. I think Eibachs r more expensive cause of the brand, but since Ive never had them I cant tell for sure.
They r not installed yet. I ordered a set of new shocks but they first gave me a price of 347 for all 4, but yesterday I went to pick them up and the price was 435 so Im still looking for shocks
Are yours on yet?
Im also waiting for my tires to arrive and I still new a few more things before I put them in.

I am the same. I was going to wait until my new wheels/tires are ordered before doing these. However seeing how it is taking ages to get my insurance check, I may get impatient and try and put these on over Christmas Break
I have heard that about sprint springs. I dunno about springtechs becoming bouncy. I haven't experienced that with mine. And I bought mine used.

My claim adjuster is not responding to messages or returning my phone calls.
I left my final phone message today. The communication on AllState's end is terrible. (about to look into further action to get a response)
This is a horrible experience IMO. I got in my accident on November 9th and have never heard another word from AllState except from the standard, 'tell me happened in your own words' recording.
Starting to get fed up with them. And I let her know in the phone message today, it claims to return my call within 4 hours on the next business day. However this did not happen already once. And when I spoke with just another person @ AllState they told me they could not help me because my claim was assigned to a specific adjuster, the person who is not communicating back with me. Multiple emails have gone un answered.
I JUST WANT MY CAR FIXEDDDDD
Oh and I am not 100% sure on the wheels just yet, but I am going for the falken koblenz style. (the only place that carried our BP in stock @ a reasonable price just closed out on these wheels). So I am looking into alternatives and I found another I like.

Damn that sucks. I hate lack of communication. Drive down there and smack that person to return an email of phone call. Bitch where is my money!!! I want my money

So I got ahold of AllState today. Let's just say our adjuster for the claim got in some big trouble for the horrid communication and the lack of information.
They thought a bank owned my car and they were trying to locate the car to do their own appraisal, they thought the car was already being repaired @ the shop. So they sent someone out to go see it, they couldn't find it. Then they just never told me about it!?
So anyways I tell them I own the car outright, and that I have been trying to contact them for weeks and I received zero information about someone coming to appraise my car.
After they found out I own the car, they said "oh...well that changes things"...
Long story short, I am now taking the LS down to Oklahoma City on Tuesday and they are running an estimate on it for less than the 7 grand. I am taking the headlight I bought, back out before I go and also am bringing photos of all the work I have done since the accident to be reimbursed for value. They then come out with a check amount on the spot and I get my check mailed to me...
I am pretty angry because I could have done this weeks ago and had my parts ready to be painted had they just contacted me back!!!!
(Had about 3 different people on the phones from AllState apologizing multiple times)
But all-in-all I am sooo relieved this is finally getting resolved and I am getting my check. So it won't be as much as originally thought, but I think I will still come out on top with it.
Ill keep anyone who is still reading this posted lol.

First off, I am OKAY!
Short story: Truck was pulled over up ahead after driving on shoulder, then decides to park in front of me on the interstate.
Due to legality reasons, I cannot share the video publicly, but I will tell you I captured his full tag on video and video of him getting out and taking his plate off before driving off.

The other driver is going to feel a world of pain in his anus. Majorly messed up what he did
