OK here is the deal I have a stock setup right now (except for the GT front strut bar which I put in) and I would like to lower my car and have better handling. I am planning on upgrading to 17 rims with in the next few months and I just need a spring which will lower the car enough to give it a more aggersive feel/ look. I've heard people talking about a lot of different springs, but to be honest I guess it comes down to IMO or something to that effect. I have heard great things about Tein and I think that is what I am leaning towards but I sm not sure if that will fill in nicely. Like I said this is my daily driver and we do get snow here. Let me know what you guys think I should do.
Thanks in advance ~Daftboy --------------------  --------------------------------私は銀行に漂う,TRD Inspired |

a spring is a spring is a spring, most springs are all equal, just depends on rest of your suspension and how much you want to drop it.

 springs are no where near equal!$50 ebay swill is totally different than a good set of tiens. different steels, different rates, different number of coils, different setup of the coils (progressive vs linear). -------------------- |

As long as you get a reputable brand, they will feel decent, it just depends how low you go. more lower, less comfort.
