James, tell us your thoughts on the BMR springs and why you switched. I have my old Bullitt springs on my '14 now, which are supposed to be the same as the CJ springs. I've considered the BMR springs and would appreciate your feedback.

When i drove on good streets i didnt have any issue. Since i moved into a more rural area and the roads are unmaintained the ride suffered and i and the car were taking a beating. We couldnt take the car anywhere as a family. The car would ride on the bumpstops and as you know thats not fun. If we hit a bump the car would hit hard enough to have metal to metal contact. It just became too much for me and it wasnt fun. Before switching i talked to Kelly and the only conclusion was to switch springs. I loved the way the car looked but it wasnt meant to just be looked at, i want to enjoy driving it as well. 4x4 or not, its got a better ride now. Thats all that matters to me.

The CJ/Bullitt springs are a bit lower than stock GT springs. Not really lowered but just short enough to eliminate the 4X4 look.

I think they both look pretty dang good. I'd say save the money, just paint the stock one,and spend the dough on something else.
