lowering springs or maybe coilovers.

[r111nxx]

The time has come to lower my car. Been wanting to do it a while now.

 

Does anyone have any springs or I could be tempted with coilovers at the right price.

 

Cheers.

Might be worth telling folk what your budget is, since there is a healthy price difference between lowering springs and coilovers.

[r111nxx]

I'm not too fussed to be honest Lexx. I know coilovers are a lot more but happy to spend on the right set. I don't want any cheap makes whatever I go for.

Are you after new or used, we can help with new...

[r111nxx]

I will get new if nothing turns up in the next week. I've checked your site out already and I thought I would just try this before buying.

Top of the pile for the weekend.

No need for further suspension mods with these.

Are they low enough though? I sort of think they are hardly worth doing for that drop? Any pics of these on anyone's car?

Just be aware that if you go beyond 20mm lower, you will need adjustable rear camber arms, rear toe eye bolts and maybe front camber arms.

Factory adjustments cannot bring camber back into spec when exceeding 20mm lowering.

Thanks smartme.

 

BulletMagnet- are all the other things expensive then if I went for Eibach's and lowered 30mm? In this case, are coilovers a better investment?

 

Thanks

[BulletMagnet]

It all depends on what you want to do.

I myself just wanted a mild drop without the need to get all the other stuff, so went Tein S-Tech route

 

With coilovers you of course have the freedom to lower to what you want, but same applies as above when you go lower than 20mm.

The advantage of getting coilovers I can see is that if your OEM shocks are starting to get tired and need replacing at some point, then coilovers would take care of two things in one go.

[r111nxx]

Yes, I see what you are saying. Do you have a picture of yours on the Tein's at all?

Looks good.what size wheels do you have on? I don't want to just rush into buying Tein's then regret it and wish I had lowered it further.

Mines lowered 20mm on Tein S springs and it's low enough to look and handle right and still deal with speed humps.Only my opinion but for what its worth Tein should be fine for the job..
