It has been my observation that cars with 1/4 springs tend to stay closer to 
home for they like to change lanes on rough roads at high speeds. One bug eye 
friend of mine puts it (you learn to anticipate the landing and steer before 
the landing). this is not the case with the 1/2 springs. and the ride is a lot 
smoother. So you should first decide how you intend to use your car. Be it 
around town or highway and that will tell you weather it is worth it.
