switching from coilovers to springs

[talontedtsi1995]

My current set-up is come ebay coil overs with kyb adj. shocks, after having this set-up I realized how bad it rides no matter what yet like the low look. What springs would you recommend in order to achive a decent ride ride yet not as bad of a ride as I currently have with cheap coil overs? Thanks

I recommend you get a real suspension setup. Koni Sports + GC ftw!

But if you must, look into Eibach Prokits for good street ride with a nice drop. If you want a bit more handling but less of a drop go with H&R Sport OE's.

He said he wanted a nice ride, thas something you wont get from a GC setup. either go with a Koni yellows on a mild spring or go with a nice REAL coilover setup.

Time to throw it back to the factory suspension for a nice ride.

What kind of height are you looking for? What are your goals for the car?

For contrast, I much preferred the ride that a Koni+GC setup provided over my Illuminas + Prokits.

Anything will be better than what you are currently running though.

looking for something with a better ride than what i have. As long as it does not sit to high or ride as bad as it does now ill be happy, here is a picture of how it sits now.

I dont see a picture. Also, what are you goals for the car? Are you EVER going to drag it, auto cross, or just street use? What is your budget? Koni's are expensive but are very recommended if you have the cash.

Alright, koni's are out. So why dont you get some H&R's or Eibach.

i was looking at eibachs but the pro kit i dont think is low enough and the sportline is too low.

.... The pro's are like 1.2" drop and the sports are like 1.5"-1.7". Pick the one that you think isnt low enough. Haha

does anyone out there how the sportlines or their car? if so how does it ride? i would it be an inmprovment over cheap coil overs? thanks, i am running 18s on the car and looking for something thats not to much higher.
