It makes no sense to me but what they do is have a certain amount of preorders they take.. Dunno what happens after they are all gone.. I'm sure u can find them somewhere.. They are on backorder until end of April early may..

im sure you could place an order individually but TH probably has to meet a certain quota to be eligible for a group discount or vendor discount or something. basically they do it that way to make it cheaper for themselves and you

I just ordered GR+Pro form THMotrosports and they said they had "2" spots left. So now apprently one. I went true so I dont have to mess with both spring and shock in the rear......lol lazy me

I called Stance directly today and they said the following:

LX's are good if you dont go below 2", below 2" you will bottom out the car bc of softer spring/valving, no matter how stiff you set the dampers

GR+ and GR+ Pro are good for below 2" due to sitffer spring/better valving for shortened shock travel

Hope that helps you guys out

Ill post a review once I get them on

Also: If you dont order now with a vendor, according to Stance none will be available until mid-June to early July

gr+ are the way to go. the lx dont have the dampening needed to ride low and the gr pro have the helper spring which most guys remove anyway. i got my gr+ from TH last year for 999 shipped. ive heard the prices have since gone up a little bit though

I think Im going to hit up TH tonight with a pm to change to gr+ bc Danny aka greengoblin said you can go lower on gr+ oem style than gr+ pro true

End of april, early May

If you go through Stance itll be mid-June early July before next shipment, but THMotorsports bought up all shipments so demand is essentially controlled......haha

i have gr+ and i am not nearly as slammed as i could be and i can fit 1 finger all the way around. the only thing i notice is noises coming from the rear from a torn shock cover im using the oem and its too big to fit in between the springs. they handle really nicely its my first set and i got them from TH

Frankieg35, 2g4u, did you guys place your order yet through THMotorsports? You said they had 2 spots left, does this mean you guys will be getting yours right away or end of April-May?

I been waiting forever for these to be back in stock. I hope I still have a chance of getting them April-May. I really do not want to wait until July.

Stance also told me that the GR+ Truetype lowers the core more than the OEM version.

Well when I placed my order they said they had two spots left.. 2g4u placed his order then that should be the last spot.. If u can't get them now you are gonna have to wait until June/July.. We will get ours April/may..

if you go true can you still use the spring bucket for toe adjustment or they have to be removed and get new arms? and for the oem style..you if you lower the spring adjustment you have to lower the strut adjustment also right?
