I ran the "c" springs on the back in an 88 tbird for about an hour and had to pull them. Sed everything. The height of the "c" springs on the front was good two finger gap on the wheel to fender plus it handled and drove nice.

I'm not sure about the "B" are they lower than the "c"? If they are than you might have rubbing issues on the front because it did bottom out on dips pretty bad

The rear B springs are the same as the C's

The fronts are just lowered stock rate springs.  The drop is about the same as with the C's (which I use on the front of my Foxes), but the rate is FAR too low for them to be anything other than for looks. 

A waste of time, do not buy.

so they are going to lower it about the same as your car? That sucks that the rate is so low. So it wont handle any better?

Lowering will be about the same.

It will be lower, so that will help handling slghtly, but not much. They are just lowering springs though.
