adjustable springs?
so ive searched 4 pages of google and 5 pages on the search on this forum and also at club xb.... do adjustable springs even exist for a 05 xb? ive checked everywhere... i do NOT want coilovers due to the price, i just want plain old adjustable springs that drop from 1 - 3 inches... n not springs that say the drop is from 1 - 3 depending on car weight.. these must be ADJUSTABLE!!!
thanks to all who reply

You could get some ground controls. Ground Controls kit converts your existing shocks into coilovers, get this and some Koni yellows and you have a better shock and spring set up than any coilover you could get for the xB.

said who?
don't get me wrong, Koni yellows are nice. but better than any coilover?
Says everyone that really knows about suspension. Look up shock Dyno's, The Tiwanese crap (D2, K-Sport, Megan, etc) is crap compared to Koni's shocks. Thats why they use Koni shocks in SCCA, and other professional racing. Simply put, there is no race oilover for the xB/xA. Name any manufacture and I'll point out their flaws, and why they would hold up against a Koni/Ground Control set up. Real race supensions don't slam the ____ outta the car, the cars are lowered with camber curves, suspension geometry and ground clearance in mind, most coilovers on the market for xB's dont even have agressive valving or spring rates higher than 5k. I know other cars that come stock with a stiffer suspension.
ive got Tein SS coilovers and the spring rate is 1 thing i did have a problem with but ony in the rear.
the springs in the front are 220 and the springs in the rear "were" 180. i tore them out and trew in a set of 225 and its made a world on difference.
but as far as the shocks and stuts with the 16 point dampner/rebound ajustsmnet, i couldn't be happier.
