Likely not.
I cannot wait for someone to try them. We've been playing with some stuff for a while, but I'd like to see someone fit them in their garage.
The MR shocks do not address the weight problem, however. The shock can only control how fast or slow the suspension moves. It is the job of the spring to hold the vehicle up.
