Hey, i'm currently running Koni adjustables and am looking to get some springs to lower the car a little, but, atm it handles bumps great, so i can corner without too much roll but still not lose contact with the road if i hit a mid corner bump.

I've heard the eibach springs are pretty good, as in they have a good anti-roll effect but are not too stiff (oh, i do have a rear sway bar as well).

Anyone had experience with these springs? prices?

Cheers

It's a good combo, had it on my civic before, nice ride and not too hard...definitely recommend it.

Ditto. I've had them on previous cars - I loved them!

But you do realise the stiffer you go, the more you'll lose contact on bumpy surfaces right? but handling on good roads is top notch!

yeah, of course, my last car was so stiff that it would lift an inside rear wheel at any corner with a decent amount of speed, great on a flat surface though.

anyways, thats why i'm asking for peoples reviews, as I'm looking for a spring that will give me something fractionally stiffer, a little lower, but not so stiff that i'm crashing over bumps and skittering through corners.

yeah i got koni yellows and pro kits...i got EM1. they combo is ok. i think a bit soft tho...i have my konis on almost full firm front and abt 1/2 turn from full firm rear. still a fair bit of body roll. or maybe the body roll is amplified by the large stock seats the car comes with (relative to my 173cm tall 60kg body)l. i sps great for melb roads tho. not too bumpy.

btw, which rear sway have u got?

i got a Whiteline rear bar..... do you have an uprated rear bar? (just trying to get a feel for how this will affect my car and so whether its what i want)

I've got my knois wound to one turn short of full firm as well, and doesn't feel like too much roll.

maybe i should go for the sportlines? although if i was getting them, i might just go for Whiteline springs, a lot cheaper....
