Composite leafs don't eliminate spring wrap.
The problem I had with composite leafs is any leaf needs to be near-flat (and pass through flat in their travels) at the rear of a Camaro for a nice lowered ride height. First gen at least. The composite technology is laid-up expecting certain surfaces be in tension or compression - they didn't like reversing those forces as they passed through flat. Not a problem if the car is going to be kept high or spacer blocks (with their attendant ills) are ok.
I've got 3-4 sets of composites against the wall at home from Hyperco, Flex-A-Form, and others...went back to steel--Jason Rhoades
