Advice to choose lowering springs

[rolex]

Hi, I\'m wanting to get a set for lowering springs for my v7 sti but I\'m not sure which springs are good.

I\'m thinking of Eibach Federn and searched the web where all these people say go for H&R also dont know where to get them.

Any alternatives other than those?

Any suggestions would be good thanks.

are u just wanting to lower it

just get the ones that suit ur ride height i suppose...

if u wana do for performance, wud seriously recomend some coilovers..makes a wonderfull difference

on a side note, dont over lower it as makes handling worse..maybe 10-30mm max (based on feel)...

post a pic of ur ride

Zerosport. Actually designed to improve handling not just looks

BRO.........i have BC Gold racing in mine... adjusties.....

I notice alot of people seem to recomend coilovers over just springs (and shocks if it was me) for a street car, ive had coilovers in street cars before and they are horible far to stiff for the road, unless you are changing the springs to suit the street i think coilovers are over kill, The only advantage i see in coilovers is you can custom tune your height ect, but that is really only needed if your going to the track.

Wouldnt a decent set of springs and shocks with dampner control be far more suited to a street car, as you can pick the correct spring rate and dont need to worry about cert.

thee ones i have do have damper control on all for spings.so i have height camber and damper control man.

Mate those H&R springs people are telling you about are the ducks guts if you want lowering springs that actually perform. They are available from Platinum Wheels or Hyper but ya better off goin to Platinum top notch service round there I wish I went that way in the first place ,tried the Tein S tech springs wasnt impressed the fronts would compress to much and you could hear them knocking after those I went to Jamex not bad but the rear springs wouldnt stay captive and the handling was shoddy to say the least I finally went to the H&R\'s and never looked back

I\'d go for Race Comp Engineering Yellows, but H&R are good too.
