Question fiberglass leafs.....

Ok, I did a search and I couldn't really find any info on them, or at least not the info I want. I know a couple of people that have them and they like them but I need more opinions on them. I want to know how they would do on a daily driven truck in the chicagoland area/ suburbs = BUMPY rough construction roads... LOL!!!! I want to know if they are worth it in terms of weight loss vs cost? And also can u still keep your truck lowered and what not? I know the payload will be lower but im not worried about that.. I am just trying to lightin up the truck for racing purposes HEHE SO any help is greatly appreciated.

Last I heard, no one sells them anymore.

Metco used to sell them, but they had enough shatter that they canceled the product...

Ride should be like the hotchkis setup, but it's reallu a mute point.

Chris they are as light as a feather... They will NOT hang with the torque and weight of our L's I managed to break/ mangle 3 sets before I gave in...That is why you can't find them new anymore...Now used....beware your MONSTER is making way too much power...
