#16726, "H&R springs and Tokico blues..."


          

Hey,

I have the chance to buy H&R race springs with tokico blues for $200...The set is 2 months old...Is this a good deal? Also, I just got on 17's w/215 45 17 tires...Am I gonna have problems with the tires rubbing? Sorry for all the questions but I'm new to this kinda stuff. Thanks!

I had the same set up on my car for a while except that I had 18's. I didnt have any problems, so you should be fine. If you have a front ground effect you might want to reconsider tho. I was scraping whenever I would have to pull in or out of a driveway. Thats the only reason I switched suspension.

With that setup my car was very low... those springs are more than a 2" drop like they claim to be. Handling was awesome though, I had to really get stupid to break the tires loose.

I have that set up and love it, it's not too low for my taste and i have no problems scraping or things like that, it rides well and it handles like a champ.

DIAMN $200 TOTAL? Thats a great buy, i spent $210 for the Race Springs, and $280 for the Tokico shocks, man you better jump on that! I love the stance, its perfect, but dont plan on gettin a rsdsm lip, you wont be able to driveanywhere.

Thanks for all the responses guys...Yeah i'll probably get that setup then cuz it seems like a great price. I'm a little worried though cuz I live in NYC and we don't have great roads here. My main concern was having problems with the tires rubbing though. Hey xeclipseracerx nice rims bro...I got the same ones but in white on my ride.
