Sup people, wondering if anyone has anything good or bad to say about Pedders Sports Ryder Suspension, springs in Particular applied to a Type R.
Does anyone know of, driven or have a car with them? I'd appreciate the input as I keep getting recommended them for my EP3 CTR. U would think one of my mates is sponsored by the people, that's how over enthusiastic he is about the product.
Ok...... GO!

I have a set still from my FD1, I really have to say that you're so much better off saving a bit more and going to coilovers.
If you go with lowered springs, unfortunately the shocks aren't going to be able to keep up over bumps etc, and that translates into the 'crashing' feeling of the shock compacting so fast because it's not stiff enough to deal with the ride height and shorter spring.
First choice is to go with a set of coilovers, steer clear of cheapies, get a reputable brand (they have made their reputation for a reason)
2nd choice would be spring and sport shock combo, but with this you cannot adjust the dampening, or the ride height etc.
3rd choice - if you don't have the funds or are just wanting your car low, and happy to sacrifice handling (especially in an EP3R) is to go with springs.
That all being said, Pedders is a decent brand for springs, it's no H&R or Bilstein, but it will get the job done for what it is.
Hope that helped.
