I will be running mine on the street almost exclusively. Why do you think there may be a problem with them? I don't think they would be prone to sagging prematurely. They look like high quality parts.

Compaired to my super stock springs they look a little wimpy. Figured its better to ask than find out the hard way.

I have read, possibly here on Moparts if you do a search, that they are bouncy on the street..No first hand though..this will bump it for you...

1st time car ever sat level. Also very nice street ride....You will wish you went to them if you buy the old standard SS springs.

Mine only held the arch for about a year of street/strip action.They started out at stock plus one inch then they went flat after a while.I have heard they resolved some of these problems and when it does happen now you just send them back.
