I'd love to see anyone selling the H&R's for $160CDN - however, DaZeD IS from cali, so maybe, just maybe, the price is really $160US that he was quoting - $240CDN after conversion...but who is selling these for $240CDN all in? If you factor in shipping and duties (assume this price is american and as such you are ordering in from the states):

$240 CDN - springs
$25 CDN - shipping
$36 CDN - duties/taxes
$20 CDN - the ever-present and ever-annoying brokerage fees

Total $321 - just over the price I paid for mine last Feb.

selling them because i want to lower my car a little more.
with all lowering springs you're shocks will wear out faster because the stock shock is not made to ride at a lower ride height...however i just changed my shocks and my stock shocks were fine.

It varies according to driving style, how many speedbumps and potholes you hit, and how heavy your car is - ie do you drive around with a system, groceries, a weight training set, a mountain gorilla, and 2 fat girls in your car? I DO!!!
I have had my car lowered since late feb/early march, and no problems in the front, rear is a little bouncy but not that bad - I have a sub and box back there, so that explains it. Anyhoo, at this rate I can likely go into next year, but hopefully the KYB AGX will be out by the due date of late summer/early fall so I can grab them. If so, I may go even lower (Neuspeed Race anyone? Heh heh).

Winter's no problem, my buddy drove around with neuspeed race, and he drives very agressively and no problems in the winter. Yeah it did scrape against the snow, but there are no problems with that.

I drove around last year with my buddy club fiberglass bumper in the winter with 1 inch ground clearance, yeah I plowed a bit, but I didn't have any problems. Heck you should see the crazy ramp I have to go up to get to my workplace, lol.

Just drive carefully, and dont crash into snowbanks.
