Guys, i need some help BAD, which springs should i get?!?!?!
Hey guys i need help bad.........
Right now i have the Eibach Pro Kit springs on my car, but it only dropped it a 1 inch.
(see my pics) I am looking into getting some more springs, if you could i need some insight from you guys that have differnt drops on your cars, i want a suddle drop not to-to low. I was looking for about a 1.3-1.5 inch drop maybe lower but no lower then 2.0 inch I really dont want to go that low. Im getting some new tires soon, Kumos 205-45-ZR17 but right now i have some 205-40-ZR17. I want a nice ride not a really bumpy ride i wouldn't mind it so much but my dad likes to drive my car alot and i dont want him complaining. Right now im looking at these springs.........Goldlines, H n R, Sprint, and Progress. I have called around and gotten differnt feed back about each springs, i can get the Sprints for 130.00 and some said that they lower the car 2.0 and some say about 1.5. The HnR's i can get for 140.00 and some say they lower the car about 1.3-1.4. And i havent checked for the Goldlines but alot say that it lowers the car about 2.0. And some say i can get about a 1.7-1.8 inch drop out of the Progress. But like i said i want a good smooth ride. Which one of these springs would give me the drop and the ride that i would like. Right now im leaning towards the HnR's becuase my friend and his brother have them on their Lexius IS 300 and Sentra Spec V and they ride ever so good and have a perfect drop. So COULD YALL PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanks a bunch.....

I was thinking about the sportlines but my cousin (Sodjazero) has those springs on his civic and they ride really nice but they are hella expensive and they dont ride as good as the HnR's for the price. All those other springs i picked because i have rode in the cars that have had them on their and i really liked some of the rides with the HnR and the progress.........

The Prokit is 10-15% stiffer then stock and the Sportlines are 20-25% stiffer. At least thats what the dood at Eibach told me. I heard that Goldlines are very close to stock ride, and the H&R's are like the Sportlines. Havent heard much about the Progress kit, except that theyre kinda stiff.
GET TEIN thats what i have and its a 1.6 front drop and 1.73 rear drop they are great springs they arent super expensive and they are TEIN better than those other brands although they might be reliable..... but i got tein s-techs i didnt put them on yet tho

Thanks guys alot of people tell me that the progress is the best to get for our cars i am looking for a stock ride but a decent drop i know thats kinda hard all the springs out there to choose from i think im gonna go ahead and get the progress off one of my home boy (jonnysil01ex) im still kinda hung on the HnR's tho any one that has them on their civic let me know how the ride is like i said i have rode with them on a IS 300 and a Spec V and the ride is great..... buti have rode in one on a civic........
