i wanna buy some springs for my mr but not too sure on which ones...what do you guys suggest?? anyone have pics?

 

go with hotchkis springs, they come with bumpstops as well, so no need cutting off your stock ones.

 

i was thinkin hotchkis...what about the tein h and s techs

 

ive heard good things about Swift, Tanabe, and Works

 

don't go with tein springs, their coilovers are great, but cost a lot of $$$. the tein springs will kill your stock shocks....

 

hmm ok i guess its between hotchkis and eibach does anyone have pics??? i wanna see what the drop looks like

 

I have the espelir springs. I love it

 

swift

 

The Teins give you a better drop, but their rates are worse than stock. Defiently go with Swifts (Ive got em sitting in my trunk waiting to replace my Tein's) and the Espelier GT springs. The Espeliers ACD ive heard some bad things about, but the GT's are great. The Swifts and the Espelier GT's are the ones Robi recommends.

 

Aftermarket springs on the stock dampers will kill the ride quality and hurt the handling characteristics. True story. Do it once and do it right. Save up and get some coilovers.

 

 

I don't agree with this. My ride quality is better than stock with the Swift springs installed and that's with 18" wheels and 235/40 tires.

You don't think the companies making springs specifically for the Evo knew that there aren't aftermarket shock options? Of course they did so it makes sense that the better springs will work fine with the stock dampers.

 

This thread has a link for Espelir GT springs for under $170 shipped. Thats a great price for those springs.

 

I have heard swift and tanabe are the best, but dont lower as much as the teins I have on my car.

 

What's the drop on those springs?
