They are both cheaper brands although I have been told that you can get Kmacs custom made to your desired ride height.

had kmacs with a 3.5" drop

ride was bumpy as hell, not really comfortable.

shame your car is a V6. or else I've got quality German made Neuspeed sports 1.8F 1.7R sitting at home collecting dust. Made for 4cyl though.

Those should still fit a v6 right? The front might drop a bit lower though, due to the added weight of the v6 motor.

I have had both kings and eibachs in my Accords. Let me tell you, kings are stiff. European one always seem to ride heaps better with similar performance.

they will fit but they diff spring rates, so maybe they turn /roll abit more in the front. hypothetically speaking.

i just refuse to sell a product that isnt designed specifically for that application.

Hey yeah SiReal i forgot about the the other springs you have, remember when you where asking bout the Kings they were good but now the have become really annoying stiff pieces of wood in between the car and the wheels i kid you not every bump and even rock in the wheel the car shakes like hell LOL.. i am deffinatly looking at getting diff ones... I heard Eibachs are good any thoughts?

[aaronng]

What are the spring rates for both brands? For a car this heavy, you'd want something at least 6kg/mm front and 4kg/mm rear with matching dampers to suit.

you should consider pedders springs i have them and the handling is good but its still comfortable:thumbsup:

[KUCING]

I used King springs and Koni shocks and I had no problems with them. I would say they're quite soft.

[Pumped]

Ive used both, and a few other brands
King springs are pretty good value for money, never had any issues, maybe some slight sagging over time but nothing major
Kmacs tend to be rough & ive heard of/seen issues with them being noisy

[turbo convert]

kings:thumbdwn: sloppy imo.
Eibachs excellent if you can get a hold of some.
for the extra few $$$ you spend well worth it

[REC4RO]

kINGS are quite Bumpy I reckon
Eibach is softer

[Rico]

save yourself problems and save up a tiny bit more and get tein ss from say titan motorsports overseas. Their adjustables so you can change the ride height and softness to your liking.

My old drop was 3.5" on kmacs and the ride was bumpy as hell, very uncomfortable.

I have the same drop now with tein ss and it rides like a dream, actually more comfortable than on the stock springs.
