pro-Kit... why.. coz sport-line is too low for me to drive in winter...^^

... there are some picture avaiable on this forum..... please do some research...

for the drop... it really depend on how do you like it.... if you want aggressive look... you can go with Tein spring... it drops 2.1F and 1.9R... it all depend on the road condition... and your preferrence....^^"

For the Eibach spring...
- ProKit 1.2F & 0.8R
- Sportline 1.7F and 1.2R
that 0.5 does make a difference on the snow...^^"

just letting you know that the search button does not work so well

only reason i keep asking believe me i have spent some time looking just trying to gather the most info posible before i go and put these things on

snow wont be a problem for me in texas but i do worrie about the damge to stock shocks i know ever one says no problem but i am just looking into all possibilties, dont mean to bother any one with useless questions just trying to building up the info on the thread

momokoo · Oct 23, 2009, 05:03 PM

... you must be kidding.... I use the search to find all information regarding to spring.... ^^"

if snow isn't a problem.... then why not changing to coilover...??

I heard some people compliant about the Sport-line due to the noise th spring create.... but there is a silencer rubber to correct that...

how much is your budget..?? Tein just release the coilover... adjustable to whatever height you want... (well the height for the F is 1.6" to 2.7")

For your information, the spring rate for the sportline is:

Front = 103 – 263 lb/in
Rear = 103 – 217 lb/in
Front Drop = 1.7”
Rear Drop = 1.2"

Honestly, if height isn't an issue for you... I would save for the coilover... unless you really want to drop now...^^"

In terms of pricing for Sportline... I believe Tirerack has the lowest price... Sportline is cheaper in terms of price compare to the Pro-Kit...

Thanks

ya i really want to drop it down on the sprot line but i have some worries about it beeing to low for the stock shocks, so did any of you guys get your springs installed

wildes56 · Oct 29, 2009, 08:27 AM

found this on car domain has the sport line but do you guys think going this low will have bad affect on the car if you are doing this only by replacing the springs
