I'm going to put new springs on my 2005 lancer es. Mostly in seek of better handling and a small drop. Can't afford coilovers so im just doing springs on stock schocks. Im contemplating between Tein S Tech, Eibach Pro Kit, or Swift Sport's. ANy suggestions? Tein's and Eibach's are a bit cheaper but are the swifts worth paying extra for?

 

Swift- Eibach --in that order and no there is no third choice.

 

I dont have a 2005 lancer but the tein s. techs dropped mine pretty nice. its almost low enough to make me not want to get coilovers.

Heres a pic of it lowered.

Theres the link, cant get the picture im not sure why

 

But how did they improve the handling from stock?

 

I cant really say how much they improved handling but it lowered it by a good inch to two inches, so i would say theoretically handling should be better.
