Hi all,

I just purchased a 2011 RA sedan and am trying to pick out some potential springs for the car. I've got it narrowed down to either the Tein S-Tech or Eibach Sportline. Can someone chime in on ride quality and ground clearance w/ these springs? I'm worried that going with either springs will bring problems when entering/leaving higher incline driveways where I work. have any of you had any issues with bottoming out or scraping your front/rear bumpers?

Thanks!

 

i have the pro kit and i have already scraped my front bumper coming out of a parking garage in chicago i actually had to back up and go out at an angle

 

i believe the teins have the biggest drop, i personally dont want to go that low since i scrape alot as it is stock, but im thinking about either Swift, RRM, or eibachs.

 

I have the rrms I love them. I do scrape on very steep inclines. Other than that no issues.

 

no creaking? i heard they creak alot

 

mine do but only the passengers side rear idk why, Im going to save up and get some BCs next

 

my rrms are silent, though i cut 1 section from each of the front bump stops. i scrape everywhere

 

swifts all the way ride quality is stock.. nicely lowered with no scraping NO weird noises got mine at MAP for 255 shipped .. nothing else i can say.. theyre awesome

 

Don't go Tiens, thats a little much for the car. I just bought a set of Sportlines, a buddy has them on and they don't sag too much. I havent driven his car but people who have say the ride awesome and they don't bounce like an agressively dropped spring would. I know another guy with RRM's, he's on this forum, and his car looks slammed compared to the Sportlines

 

In what way?

 

Tien are way to low in my opinion.
I have ridden in a RA with Swift springs and that is why I ordered them.

I ended up getting coilovers so i never installed the swifts. But the car i rode in handled amazing! I was blown away. Felt better than my old 9 did with coilovers.

 

Swift springs are the way to go. I have swift springs and 9.5 rims and it feels incredible when u take turns

 

SWIFT is the best!!! Ride,quality and handling is 10/10 the height is perfect coz i worried too much scraping my bumper, with this springs i DONT have any problems and also doesnt ruin the shocks in the long run... Go with swift

 

I'm buying my swifts this month

 

The lack of actual information and BS in this thread is amazing. I really wish people would understand what is being said and not follow the sheep mentality.
