Replacing struts, springs will also most likely require to install new strut mounts and still your car will bottom out in some occasions.
My thought is to replace the OEM struts with a good coilover like BC, I know there is a difference in the price tag but I have installed TEIN S tech springs, with monroe struts (I bought them used though from a friend but there was on his celi for about a month and the car was not his daily driver, he then install TEIN coilover suspension and sold them to me very cheap anw...) still I m not happy at all, if the price was not apealing, I would had installed coilovers too. And the stance would be a lot better, the front looks a bit higher than the rear I just hate that I can't do nothing with this, and the front tents to bottom, quite often. If you want to keep the car and spend money on it, take more time and read more threads about this subject before spending money. |
