Rennsport or H & R or Eibach ?
I have 2002 2.5 RS just put on 17s"
So i want to lower my car and i got few offers, so i want your opinion guys i am from canada so the prices are in CDN:
Eibach Pro Kit - $410
RennSport - $330
H & R - $500
i know Eibach is good but i dont want to spend alots of money
Can some one tell me if RennSport are any good?
from all of them Rennsport is about 1.8 drop
while H & R 1.5 and Pro kit is 1.3
I like the 1.8 drop but dont know if i should buy the Rennsport springs.

I suggest going w/ the Eibachs because they do not wear the struts as quickly as the other springs with a more aggressive drop. Eibachs are quality springs. If you want a bit more drop, look into SPT springs. http://www.subaru.com/microsites/spt/main.jsp
They are manufactured by Eibach and are a bit lower (1.4" front/1.2" rear).

Of those three I would get the Eibachs. H&Rs are too low, and I don't know how much RennSport knows about Subarus, considering I've never seen another example of their stuff for our cars. With Eibachs you always know what you are getting, and on stock struts they work great.
I agree with Ban suv's and Redrex. I have SPT (Eibach) and I am verry happy with them. Since Rennsports drop 1.8" you will probable need struts and when you add that into the mix it is allot more expensive than purchasing the Eibach springs.
You can with Eibachs and I would think you could with a spring that is around the same heigth reguardless of brand (1.4" front 1.2" rear). Im not positive but I dont think the wear is determined by how stiff the strut is but because of how much the strut shaft is compressed from the amount of drop of the spring.

The reason why I ask is because IM used to maximas not able to hold even a 1.2" drop because of their long and soft shocks.
Thats good that I can lower the subie a bit and save money on shocks if they are still good.
Thank you.

The problem is that i have 205/40/17 tires
and i have like 4 inch gap in front and almost about 2.5 inch in the rear and Eibach gives me only 1.4" front/1.2" rear
after eibach i still will have qutie large gap,
how about Tein S-tech any good ?
