Hey all!

i wanted to get some springs for my DC5R and was wondering where you get some decent springs such as king, eibach, tein etc..at a reasonable price!!

and also you know hardness of the spring e.g soft, medium, hard which is best or which one would people recommend is soft too soft? because i was thinking of getting medium.

help would be great thanks!!

well i had a look around at some springs and saw you get tein springs for around $400 so i was only looking to spend around $400-$500ish

You can get springs that match the stock shocks, so that the shocksk won't blow.

Springs don't come in a "soft/medium/hard" spec.
They are measured in "kg/mm"

dont forget most of the jap brand springs are designed for the JDM dc5r which has differenct shock set up to ours, so will probably wear our stock shocks even faster.

i put whiteline springs in my car ~ 4 years ago and havent had a drama, they have been in the longer than i intended but still problem free.
