Does anyone know which will give a firmer ride, Eibach Sportline Spring Set with the 1.5 inch drop or the Eibach Pro Kit with the 1 inch drop and are the TRD springs that are made by Eibach and give a 1 inch drop exactly the same as the Pro Kit or are TRDs made to a different firmer spec by Eibach than the Pro Kit. I dont want to go too low but i want the spring that will give me maximum handling with comfort an afterthought. And does anyone have comments about the quality/performance of H&R springs? I thought of them too but dont hear much about them.
I was just reading this review site and people were saying the drop sags over time and sometimes certan springs sag before others and ending up with a 2.5" drop. I cant go that low, my roads suck horribly. This post has been edited by Milds3vn: Jul 16, 2003 - 12:11 AM |

Yes... TRD springs are *rebadged* Eibachs. I've own both Eibachs and H&R's... the ride quality is the same. I currently have H&R's in the rear and custom-made springs in the front. Here's my advice: Just don't go lower that 1.5, and you'll be fine. As far as the sagging theory goes: Yes, you will notice it sag... which should happen immediately after turning a few corners around your block. But by no means will it sag beyond what it's rated at. Whoever told you that it will sag to 2.5" is blowing some major smoke... What you will notice (with a lowered car) is that when you jack up your car (say to change a flat or rotate tires), the side that you jacked up will be slightly raised. Driving around the block will cause it to sag back to normal... but definitely not 2.5" |
