Default Want springs, which ones?

HAN Friends,

I really need to lower my car. I am just not sure on which springs to get. I am really leaning toward some Goldline springs, due to price. I do know the reputations of brands like H&R, Neuspeed, Eibach and a couple others. I just want something that gives a good ride, same as stock or even better. I don't want to spend an arm and a leg right now. Help me out!

Thanks in advance.

H and R, you should be able to find some for around 150-160 shipped.

I don't want adjustability...and the thought about putting some coilovers on stock shocks doesn't appeal to me. I want the defiante security of a good shock. What ever spring I get will be on for no more then a year. I do plan on getting a full suspension upgrade form maybe TEIN or SPOON.

I swear by neuspeed sports. had them on two cars and they give a really nice job without camber problems.

but wanting springs that ride as well as stock if not better is not a reasonable request. the springs are shorter and stiffer which obviously make it lower and provide stiffer turning. at the same time though bumps seem stiffer and your car will bounce a little more cause the struts do not move properly.

I could write on and on but you get the idea.

Neuspeed or H&R sport.

Eibach Sportlines




They arent as harsh as the race springs and are easy on the wallet. Do it right the first time. Dont buy any no name brand when it comes to suspension components. You do get what you pay for.

thanks Skubb.

I can get Neuspeed springs for $134 shipped from a groupbuy.
