Need a straight answer.

I want to get lowering springs for my 1g. But I dont want like a 2" drop though cause thats just me:D

but I also read you need a camber kit and i have no idea what it is haha

So my question is what is the best combo for struts and springs at a decent price??

Thanks
 
^ true give us how much your willing to spend on a strut and springs....
 
that would probly get you just springs..... id go with pro kits for springs.... and if you want shocks that are adjustable then id go with kyb agx..... those normally goes for about 400-500 front and rear alone.... then the pro kits for about 200 i think....
 
eibach prokit is a very good choice.

along with the kyb's agx's.

this is a great beginners setup into suspension modding. next i recommend sway bars, so your tires will stay firmly planted in the corners and provide less body roll.
 
yea honestly for about 600 you get the kyb's and prokits.... and the prokit only drops your car to about 1"
 
dude. don't cheap out.

eibach's are known for their performance, and their bang for their buck, and their durability and integrity.

eibach's are the best for your dollar, until you really get hard into suspension.

if you want a cheap shitty ride, go for the unknown brands of ebay. but if you want something that will last and actually perform for a great price, go eibach, or don't ask for opinions.
 
Yes I know this is months old, but I didn't want to start a whole new thread.

I'm looking to upgrade my suspension on my FWD Laser RS-T for Auto-X and most likely Rally-X in the dirt. I'm a beginner, so my plan involved getting Koni shocks and the Ground Control camber kit, I'm undecided on the springs though.
I want to avoid lowering the car, but it seems that all the aftermarket spring kits will lower the car at least an inch. The folks above recommended the Eibachs. I've looked at several reviews for the Eibachs, but they're so subjective, so I'm having trouble making a final decision.

My question is, are these the right springs for my goals or is there another kit I've overlooked?
