Back to the original question, for the feel, that is somewhat subjective. I assume it's more damped than the oem shocks and because of that, it may feel like there's less body roll going around corners on the street and it may feel better for you. It would probably be easier to whip the tail out by squeezing the gas and you may like that and you may feel like the car is faster.

But as far as handling I can guarantee you it will be slower, and suck.
