I was told that's what it was called. PPG calls it something else though. The best I can find is that it has Maple in it's name

Re: Lowered the car after the new rims
Well since it seems im copying you with the wheels, I mine as well copy your suspension set-up too. Did you change your shocks and PHR? If so what did you go with and how much $. If not hows the car handle right now without the those items and with just the springs. Thanks for the help.

Re: Lowered the car after the new rims
Revalved Bilsteins(sp) all around.
I bought a used APHR from someone on here with solid rod ends. You can pretty much go with anyone's piece regarding that.
The car handles really really well. With the proper shocks it's not bouncey at all. A "little" harsh but that's to be expected with shorter/stiffer springs.
Overall I'm happy with the look(though the rear sags a bit) and the performance of the suspension
Also, don't forget LCA relocation brackets...VERY important
