12207, the best springs for a lowered car Posted by RIeclipse, Sep-17-02 08:39 AM
I have obx coil overs and I'm dropped like 2.5in and the ride sucks, so I'm planning on getting Tokico Illumina shocks and I'm not sure which springs I should get, let me know how much and the drop and maybe a link to them and I only want springs that drop 2" or lower. thanks for the help lata

vegasdsmr, how many inches in the front and the rear are you dropped and are you on factory shocks?

Ryan_RS, when you got your springs, it said 2in in the front and 1.75 in the back, right?

i would def go for the H&R's. lotta of people switch to them from other companies. all sleeve coils give shitty rides. about any spring would do good on you

have you tried those obx with those shox or do you have shox right now? I got skunk 2s and agxs and the ride is kind rough if the damper is all the way up but it corners like a champ, I can turn it down and it'll be less harsh. I rather have it mega stiff this EVO bumper scrapes like a mofo.

I am on KYB GR-2 Struts, which many people shun, but actually my ride is just fine. The springs are labeled "1.75 in the front, 1.5 in the rear"...but they settle out a little lower.
I'm guessing I'm at about 2" in the front and 1.75 in the rear -- see below pic...

I just hate bouncing, I am willing to get any shocks and any springs, that will make not bounc everywhere, the only choice I don't have is going back to stock.
