I have sportlines on my car and I want to return to stock. I will do a straight up trade if you have a place and time for the swap and preferably air tools. It's like a free upgrade!

I have probably put around 45k on them. Nothing wrong but just would rather have the softer ride.

I'm in the Austin/Central TX area.

Yeah I should have clarified; they are genuine Eibach Sportline springs.
I would like to drive somewhere on my Sportlines, then drive back home on stocks.

I would also trade with someone who is on the pro-kit springs if they are looking to have their car lower.

A better solution would be to spend $200 on KYB GR-2 struts. If you're still running on OEM struts, then those are your problem, not the Sportline springs. I have the GR-2/Sportline setup on my car and it's my DD, no issues whatsoever, perfect comfort.

Switching back to stock springs is a free solution to better your comfort, but your ride will still suck because your struts are blown.

^ Agreed. I've got prolines on mine right now with two blown rear struts. I'll be putting gr2s on this spring, but I've got no issues so far....

I do still have my OEM springs if you still want to go that route.

You know, I haven't thought about that. I put on new struts with the springs but I can see how they would be done for.
My ride doesn't seem bouncy though, just a little rough on these roads. And if I push on a corner of the car it just rebounds once.
