Same experience. No complaints, they ride nice, flex well.
I haven't personally confirmed it, so take it with a grain of salt, but I recall seeing a chart at one time that said the Skyjacker 8" coils were within 5 lb/in of the RE 5.5" coils. If that's true, that might give you an idea of how they ride (I think it was RE: 225 lb/in, Skyjacker: 230 lb/in).
