Lowering spring options. *pics*

VEEEETTAAAAKKKK!!! lol
I am looking for some lowering springs for my car and I have no idea what to buy. I am on a budget and would like to keep it under $120 for them. I have skunk2 coilovers on tokico blues now and they are just way to stiff. I will keep the shocks and I just need springs.

Here is the ride height I have now (about 1 finger gap) and I'd like to stay close to that if I can (within 1/2 inch)



What springs should i look into getting? Its a daily that I take to the track sometimes so i'd like a good mix of comfort and performance.

Thanks for the help guys.

HnR tein is too soft
but lowering your car and saying it too stiff is daft...lowering your car+comfort dont equate

I understand that, but I've ridden in a lot of other lowered cars on the same roads I take and they are not nearly as stiff. I go over a bridge on the interstate and hit my head on the roof. granted i am 6'3".

^^very true.$120 for springs won't get you anything decent,maybe used springs. Tokico blues can't handle a major drop anyways, I think they are rated up to a 1.5 drop. The most comfortable ride I had with springs were eibach prokit but they are only 1.3 drop,which is like a 2 figure gap.

I have had these slammed at one point where there was no gap. The shocks handled it fine, but it was only like that for about a month then I went back up after I saw scratches in my oil pan. I have heard great things from eibach. they totally slipped my mind. I will look into those.

Well the eibach and H&R's are pretty well out of my price range.

Anyone ever use K-Sport Springs? What about Megan?
The K-sport are progressive rate and I like that, but I've never heard of them.

I've heard of Megan Racing, but nothing about their springs.

i have little patience when people ask a question about something i just posted ie, when i get a PM on a product for sale and they ask how much it is when the price is listed in the FS thread.

Are you sure you're not slammig into your bumpstops?

I'm running ground control sleeves on tokico blues and I have NO compaints about the ride. It's perfect for what I'm looking for at the moment.
