Yes they are. They are out of billet stock and expect some in soon. I think this week or next month, I forgot what they said about it.

how so? mine were nice because my stock ones were due for replacement. beyond looking pretty they weren't worth the money in my eyes but that's just my opinion. i'm sure they serve some sort of technical purpose however when compared to other options for more popular vehicles like the mustang i can't see how.

The reason I bought my HMS mounts was for the raised top. This gives the strut room for more travel on a lowered car. It also allows you to run a better bushings, though not sure if you can run the good steel bushing with the OEM units (never tried). Yeah it looks cool too. hahahaha

I beleive that Spohns are actualy raised a bit. something like 3/4", they also have the bearing moved slightly inward, to allow for a bit more camber.
