Should I go for Cobb, Swift or Tien Springs? and Why?

I heard Swift has better performance than Cobb.. is that true?

 

it depends on what you really want. performance wise, i would go with the swift springs, but they do not offer as low as a drop.
if you're looking for a larger drop and decent performance gains, go with cobb springs.

 

i have cobb and they work great

 

Have Swifts on my STi and love the way they ride. True they don't have too much of a drop though. Low enough though that I scrape my lip on somewhat steep driveways.

 

i bought Cobb stage 2 suspension and its gonna be put in this coming week. i heard that its not too much of a drop for Cobb too kinda like the same as swift. i picked cobb cuz itd cheaper than Swift and also if youre trying to get the Tein S. tech dont even bother cuz those spring sux ****. they give out a pretty big drop but depends on how you drive your shocks might give out its only for show imo and not for performance.

 

Thanks, so Cobb/Swift are most reliable if keeping stock struts, right? How often do struts wear out?

 

Not that often unless your springs are superlow, tien, cobbs are pretty low as well. Im on swifts and thats already bumpy. Just get new struts asap =D

 

swifts work well with stock struts. They are a bit more costly than other springs but well worth it. Good luck.

 

Thank you. I dont have to worry about my springs anymore... My friend just crashed my WRX. =[

 

the swifts are hella good. i got them on my 03 wrx and they ride so much better than the cobb

 

aww I am sorry to hear about you car being crashed.. How bad is it? and is everyone ok?

 

Everyone is okay, thanks for your concern. There was barely any mechanical damage, which is the good part. Bad part is that the frame might be bent... and I need a new body for front/rear bumper, fenders, 2 doors, and the trunk.

I worry if the frame or suspension parts are damaged, that my WRX won't drive the same again.

Thanks again for concerns,
JJ

 

that suxs man sorry to hear that. its ok if theres a problem with the suspension just not the frame.

 

oh man im sorry bout your car! at least your okay tho

 

just got my spring and sway bars from cobb installed thanks EQ tuning! its not much of a drop for me its just perfect you can see a lil wheel gap so its not big of a drop.
