Hello guys,

After getting my new wheels and tires I've decided to finally get some new lowering springs. I've heard good things about both the Prodrive and Eibach springs. I don't want to change my struts, at least not right away. And also don't want to be worring about bumps. I really want to close up the wheel well gap and reduce body roll, but again don't want to worry about bottoming out on speed bumps.

What are your suggestions? I just installed a set of Enkei RPM2 17" wheels, so any pics of subies with similar size wheels and springs would be great.

I'd definately say get the Prodrives ove the Eibachs. Have you looked at Crucial Racing's springs?

prodrive are made by eibach

 

eibach drops it the perfect height for not messing up your struts.

 

Do a search... you'll see how much people like them. If not Swift, then Prodrive although they are both Eibach springs (different specs for the same car). If you own a wagon then SWIFT! are for you (wagon specific springs available). The drop is nice ~ visit my Vb Gargage to see shots...

 

north west out back sport knows his wagon well

we need a wagon thread

 

swifts ftw.

 

why swift?

 

Thanks for the info guys, but the decision was made for me. I'm actually glad that somebody made the decision for me because sometimes I can spend too much time second guessing myself. I was going to buy these for myself for my birthday but my brother in law decided he'd get me the Eibachs, after talking to subietech. I was leaning towards the Eibachs anyway so thanks Mike.

 

no prob....What are friends for`..

Now if i can only kick this flu, I would come help you install them.

 

if you have food ill supervise hehe

 

i like the spring rates better.
they work really well with stock struts from what i've read.

 

what are the spring rates on all three?

 

afaik prodrive has not disclosed their spring rates but they are manuf by eibach
all three claim to work the best with the stock struts

 

true.. at the end it's all base on personal perference i think.
