H&R OE sports...one inch drop www.tirerack.com

I have them right now (not the ones in the sig) and i like them...lowers it slightly but i don't think they make a "performance" stiff spring that doesn't drop for our car.


No more scraping for me...

How do your springs become shot?

same way valve springs go bad, wear and tear, (probably abuse too, i'm not saying that you do, but i know i do)

after a while metal tends to creep or deform.... it just happens, the more its used the less better it will be (if that made ANY sense at all)

push the car down, it should bounce back up and stop, not bounce up and down a few times. They should still feel stiff not soft.

Smooth idle? We don't need no stinking smooth idle.
