What Springs do you vote for?

Postby Solorange » Mon Mar 28, 2005 9:04 pm

So in a couple of weeks when i get my next paycheck i will be ordering my lowering springs. I have narrowed it down to three choices. Eibach, Tein, or Intrax. What do you vote for? Feel free to leave any comments about your opinions on any of the springs. The more feedback i get the the better. Also, base on some of my research I have an idea on what spring is going to win. I pretty much have decided on that one but I want to see the official results from the poll. Thanks ~ Chris

P.S. I am also going to get tokico blues. For those who have them,where did you guys buy yours from? And how much? Thanks again

if you know who's going to win, why have a poll? :roll:

anyways, tein/tokico combo is most popular...

It is really up to you on Eibach and Tein because they are both good brands. I don't know about Intrax.

I voted Tein, gonna put mine in on Fri. along w/ the Tokico's. Look for ebay vendor motorsportsdirect, that's where I got my tokico's, that was the cheapest place I've found.
p.s. if they're not there one day, they'll be back another, they only put one set(4) up @ a time.

Im a bit afraid of buying carparts on ebay though. I dont know if i trust ebay that much. Ive had a 50 to 50 experience with it. Sometimes i get what i want and it works out ok and other times they screw with you a bit. I agree its cheaper, but if something were wrong with them then i have to mail them back and worry about getting new ones. Also you wouldnt get any warrenty stuff with that would you?

heck, just go with the coilovers. IMO, theyre far superior than just the tein/tokico combo. do what --1LOKEDOUTSLE-- suggested and buy the jic. you wont regret it.
