I have Tanabe NF210s and I haven't had any problems with them yet. The ride got better after they were broken in of course, and it feels much better now than before. Then again I've never had springs other than stock so I don't really know.

probably the most drop for the money will be the Tanabe DF210s.

How's the ride quality? does it feel much stiffer than stock? if you can please give me some feedback. also how was the height after it settled? can you post some pics? thanks

The ride is great, it would be smoother if I got better wheels most likely At first it didn't seem all that low but now I can see how low it is. From what I've gathered going to DF210s might be too low if you want 18"s, but NF210s seem just right for them.

It is stiffer than stock but.. not. Not sure how to describe it sorry lol. I have pictures somewhere on the internet, check Tanabe-USA for the xD springs (it's my car) or I'll post some in a bit.
