HKS Drag Coilovers

I'm looking at running the HKS Hipermax Drag coilovers on my s14, but here's the deal: I've heard these things are hardly streetable. Anyone have some personal experiance with this setup?

The spring rates in the front are 5s and the rears are 3s.

My car is being setup mainly for drag, but I also like cruising around town too...maybe I'll have to get a couple sets of springs?

I have the HipermaxII setup, I hardly drive it, but they seem streetable, not sure the difference between Drag and II but seeing how everything is adjustible...you can set it up to how you like it. HKS is the way to go

IIRC, the hipermax II setup has a spring rate of 7 in the front and 5 in the rear...so it is quite a bit stiffer.

Looks like I'll just have to find a coil over that is somewhere in the middle if I want to drive on the street.
