As the proud owner of an 06 XA, I am considering lowering to reduce the huge fender to wheel gap. My biggest concern is I do not want to make the ride worse! I would really appreciate photos and comments regarding XA's with either of these springs. Would also like to meet any other XA owners in the Phoenix/East Valley area.
Thanks!

 

i would recommend the s techs. but you will get a worse ride with them.

try the eibach sportlines. they have a progressive spring rate so when youre driving normally, the ride is softer. but when youre cornering, the springs stiffen up.

theyre a bit more than the teins, but it might be worth it.

 

^^yep or you can try goldlines which make for a more 'comfortable' ride...I have s-techs and the ride isnt super soft.

 

With you being AZ and you do not have to deal with great ampunts of snow...I would go with the S-Tech because they make the car look great but again not the softest ride. Maybe check out the Sticky thread on srings and find the drop you want with the min. lb. rate to give it the soft ride.

 

H-techs should ride softer but there isn't much drop.
