I'm looking to get the most COMFORTABLE ride outta Lowering Springs.

Which ones ride Best and how much do they lower the xB?

RS*R springs hands down. Thats all I gotta say. :D

 

tein h techs

 

how much do each of those lower the vehicle?

 

The more you lower your ride the less likely it will be that you will have a "comfortable" ride. TRD Springs lower the xB about 1" and gives you a 10% stiffer ride. I don't know about the other brands that have been listed here, but you might want to see what the drop is and how much stiffer they are. IMHO.

For a 2.2 inch drop w/ comfort I would go w/ Tanabe DF210s or Goldlines. BUT, if you want to drive aggressively, and have a 2 inch drop, I would go w/ TEINs.

 

for comfort, h-techs. They lower about 1-1.5 inches but their rate is softer than stock.

 

I think the GoldLines provide a good balance of ride quality and performance. They're a 2" drop.

 

try attending nor-cal meets i'm sure they'll be most happy to let you check the ride. i would but i'm in so-cal. with my tien s-tech, the ride is softer compare to stock, lowers 1.7, 1.5 inches, but changing wheels(series) from 15's to 17's did not help, still rides good for me.

 

Its like your favorite position, or your favorite food, or you favorite size subwoofer. Eveyone will tell you what they have is best.

 

df-210's ..for me ..

 

Tein S-Tech

 

Many people have said that changing of springs is not enough. With the car lowered with springs, the damper will be damaged soon, heard about six motnhs before oil start leaking etc. Have anyone here actually fitted lowering springs, but not changed the stock dampers.... how long it lasted before having to change the dampers? Or did you have to change at ALL?

 

has anyone ever tried EIBACH..?if so any feedback..?

 

not true , i offer unbiased opinions , i have ____ty ___ ebay coilovers which ride like ____ but i got the look. lol

 

Htechs spring rate is lower than stock, this means a softer ride. I've had goldlines and h techs. h techs are like butter.

They are not good for handling (lots o roll) but provide a smoother (note, I didn't say SMOOTH) ride and are a bit lower than stock (look pretty good). I've had mine lowered for 10 months and 16K miles. No leaks yet, but I'm sure if I'd have stayd at 2" they would be by now . I have to budget for new shocks/struts soon, I'm sure.

 

Goldlines will give you a more comftable ride than stock. Way better!

 

so how do we know if our shocks/struts is leaking, will the car bounce uncontrollably like those civics I see that cut/heat their springs?
I haven't experience that yet I guess our stock koni are still okay.

 

tein's ride really good on fwy. goldlines are nice, but they are a bumpier ride. i have had both

 

hey goldline springs kick butt i have them on my car 2 inch drop very good springs.
