This absolutely correct. I am getting a suspension upgrade also and was contemplating getting the 1LE kit. I contacted Tyler at JDP Motorsports who is the one of the suspension guru's here on C5. This is what he normally recommends as something comparable:
For roughly the same money, you can get further ahead with aftermarket parts.
The 1LE has a staggered wheel setup, but runs a square tire setup; 285s all the way around.
I suggest looking into the following parts:
Prothane subframe bushings
Prothane front control/radius arm inserts
JDP Upper control arm bushings
BMR or Detroit speed sway bars
JDP FE4 suspension conversion
Trailing arms w/ outer bushings (many choices)
Toe links (again many choices)
You can contact him at the following number if you have questions.

JDP Motorsports is a forum sponsor and Tyler is very well respected here. Here is what he recommended for me for my setup:

BMR trailing arms w/ outer bushings
BMR toe rods
BMR Front adjustable sway bar
BMR Rear adjustable sway bar
BMR rear endlink brace
BMR rear endlinks
BMR front endlinks
BMR 1.2" drop V6 specific lowering springs
Total: $1450 shipped if you call to order, or I can send you a PayPal invoice. We can also break this up into stages if you would like.
This will cover everything needed/recommended in your suspension.
I'll be having this installed sometime next week along with the Brembo brake upgrade. Good luck.
