Default progressive 11.5"
Hey guys i have a 2013 SB and wondering what people with 11.5 progressives think about them? I beleive stock is 12" so it would drop it a little bit, give it a little better look and not sacrifice much comfort. Really considering ordering a set.

I went with the 11 1/2 440's. Ride seemed better then stock. But just the 1/2 lower really made a difference in the look.

I had the same as strobe, but only lasted 1 season, I had the standard springs and weighed 189 lbs and found them too stiff to enjoy. Sold them off for 125$
