I am thinking of buying a set of these springs. They lower the car 1.75" just like the springs in the Tokico handling package. I originally intended on the Whole Tokico handling package but maybe this is a better idea. I am very interested in good handling so I want these to be good springs. If anyone has any advice or knows of anyone who has had these, please let me know so I can make my choice. Thanks
 
Wonder if anyone has these springs too. I'm intrested in them. They say a .8 in the rear and 1.5" in front. Is that bad for handleing? I'm more intrested in straight line and figured that these might be decent. Hopefully keeps the weight in front for FWD.
 
i got a set of these springs for sale. They are for FWD cars only. I bought them on mistake thinking they fit AWD cars. I believe its 1.5 in the front and 1.0 or 1.2 in the rear. From what i here, very good spring.
 
If anyone cares, I also have a set of these for sale for a 2g FWD. They are brand new, never installed. I was planning on installing them on my car but I found an AWESOME deal on a GC/Koni setup so I decided sell the RSR springs. The main reasons that I bought the RSR springs in the first place is because they aren't supposed to have quite as much of a drop as some of the others, the price was good, and they are a progressive rate spring which would help for ride.
 
Here is a little more information I have found about these springs. RS*R part #30-B021

Front Drop: 1.2"
Front Spring Rate: 319 lb

Rear Drop: 0.8"
Rear Spring Rate: 179 lb

I have had this set (new in the original box) for a while now and really don't remember what I paid for them. I looked around on the internet last night and it looks like the current price is about $225/set (plus shipping) new which puts them in the same range as Eibach Pro Kits. If needed, I can take some pictures of the ones I have and email them to you.

I really don't know what to sell them for. Give me a reasonable offer.

If you are interested, please email me at [email protected].

what makes you say you dont think they are very good springs? You have posted at least two threads in the suspension forum but to say the least not many people have these springs. I highly doubt you have a clue what you are talking about. Rs*R is a reputable company. I infact have these springs and am very very happy with them. Yes, my car is AWD and i installed these prings on my car. I would recommend these for street use with light track work. Springs rates are stiffer then stock about 80lb.s stiffer in the front and 20lb.s stiffer in the rear. Dropped the front an inch and a half and the rear just a tad over an inch. Perfect for me as i honestly think the slammed look is ugly. When i start road coursing and have some more money i will step it up to a full one peice coilover system. But, for now, i am very please with my RSR/tokico combo.

higher in the rear helps keeping the front down when launching the car. So for traction purpose, this spring is nice. Especially for FWD. Get a nice set of adjustable shocks and you'd be set.
 
Well their part # is for FWD cars, I don't think they designed the spring for a heavier AWD. Also they only sell their lower end springs for out cars, wich it made out of different material and probably prone to sagging over time... Just what I gathered from their site and a couple other random comments from people.
 
They seems nice. I was curious though...is this a progressive spring. i couldn't find any website saying it is :confused:
