any free springs are good springs as long as you have heard of the brand
 Also, if you want a good, stockish ride, get the KYB's. If you want performance, go with Koni

ok, first off, depending on your milage, your stock ones are prolly old an worn, and will go, or sag a hella lot quick, you might as well replace them, tokico's are nice, but I have yet to find them for our cars, manly for honda's that iv found, an alos, koni's you have to take apart your rear setup an weld them in, kyb gr-2s are just drop in's an replacments, also alot cheaper, i have gr'2s and sportlines, an drive nearly like im in auto x every day, handles great, just becarful with your rear sway bar links, you might end up replacing witch is another 100 or so |

Inspection? What sort of inspection? I had a lowered Nissan Hardbody, dropped about 5 inches...AAA wouldn't insure it because they said it was too low. So all our cars were insured with AAA and the Hardbody at State Farm.
