Default Rk vs metalcloak coils?

Looking for opinions from those that have run both MC AND RK coils.

I currently have RK 3.5 progressive coils just wondering if I would see a difference if I switched to MC.

Opinions?

I have had both within the last couple years. Ran RK 2.5 with Bilsteins on my 15 two door and just upgraded to a 17 4 door and have a 3.5 MC with their rock Shock. I do think the metal cloak suspension feels better but it could be the shocks as part of the equation. The one thing I do notice is that the RK rear sagged and I had to add angled pads under the coils to angle them better and don't have this issue at all with the MC coils. I also tow a camper and noticed a major impact to the rear towing with the RK coils and the MC coils barley give at all with the weight of the camper.
