only big con would be that it may limit the kind of blower you plan on getting...if you even plan on getting one. Could cause clearance issues in the area.

helps decrease body /chasis flex, not really needed w/ the s197. there are other suspension options that are more functional, but they look pretty cool.

They help eliminate body and chassis flex. I'm not sure how much of a difference they make.

I had heard that they were not really needed on the 197 but really like the way they look.
