higher spring rates

higher spring rates

The higher the spring rate.. the stiffer they will be.. so they won't lower as much

about how much would these springs cost?

if your gonna spend cash on springs save a little more and go with coilovers, so much better, and if you get a good set like some tiens you can adjust them yourself easily. Who is to say that you wont have the same problem with a new set of springs.

yeah, i think u should get a good good spring, that dosent go more lower then how it is.... Cause last week, i droved my friend.. He's a pretty much big guy. My car is like 1 pop can off the ground, next thing u know I droved off, the wheels are rubbing with the fenders.... I think u should get the stiff springs, go around and ask for infos.... Or maybe get airbag? i might plan on doing it too...

but yo, go around and ask those pros... and they'll help u out alot..

i'll have my tein s-tech springs for sale in about a week and a half, we can meet halfway if youre interested (i am in northeast pa)

let me know, they are definately good quality springs....hard enough for what youre looking for, but soft enough for a daily driver

kyb agx with some gc coilovers is a nice setup imo.
