My wife and I both love the DF210s I installed last week on her xB. The best pricing I have found was through C2 Auto. Look at the sponsored sales, Jay was having a special on the DF210s. He was great to deal with. He didn't have them in stock, but still got them to me quickly.

I think the cheapest place depends on who's having sales. But in answer to which springs to get, I have the DF210's and like them just fine.

i'm thinking maybe i should get the goldlines.

i'm getting 16's soon and would just like a decent drop, but do not want to sacrifice ride quality. i've read that the tanabe's are bouncy compared to the goldlines

Just browse around...I found the DF210's for REALLY cheap plus they give the lowest drop (for good springs).

Just browse the net...they are everywhere.

I have DF210s. I honestly dont think that the ride is that much different between the three springs because they are so low. I have also had RS*Rs. They rode a little worse than the DF210s but its all your opinion.

speed alliance they are in sd. They specialize in drifting but can get scion parts.
I bought df210's from them about 1 1/2 yrs ago, at the time they were $150.00
It's speedalliance.com 1-858-637-9240 ask for chris or warren. Sorry I'm late just saw you got goldlines. Thanx Robert

I know you bought goldlines...but for anybody in SoCal who doesn't feel really good about buying your stuff online- I got my tanabe df210s at autobacs for $169. Definitely the best price I've found not online.
They actually sell them for the xB for $189, but $169 for the xA. I saw this, and argued with the guy that they were the same springs, so I got the xB springs for $169. Autobacs is kind of expensive for everything else, and most of the employees don't know much and treat the customers like ___ for asking questions- but this wasn't a bad deal.
