Spoon suspension on an EG/Del Sol - experiences

**androo** · 26-03-2014 10:02 PM

Who here has rocked Spoon shocks and springs (not their coilovers). I've been offered a set however can't seem to find much information on them.

Anyone who has any feedback they'd like to share that would be great! Ratings out of 10 for things such as comfort, stiffness compared to stock, suitability for road use etc would be sweet as.

Not sure if I'm blind today but can't even figure out an approximate drop for these!

Cheers guys!

I have a set on my dc2. Handle very well and are still super comfortable. The harder you push them the better they respond in the corners. If you into serious track work then get something harder, but for hill runs and street use these are the best you can get imo. Can still hit speed humps at 50kmh no worries. It's 1" drop all round, never damage your sump or headers. Can't recommend them highly enough

Thanks for the feedback! That sounds perfect. I'll take the plunge

can't wait for them to arrive and have them fitted!

Will post back once they are on with what I think about them.

just a quick question

what springs are you using with your spoon shocks?

Spoon progressive, 6.5kg and 5.5kg, don't let the low numbers fool you though. The car feels great

Mine? Sorry just cleared it. Thanks for the heads up.

Thought I would update everyone - been riding on these for about 2 weeks and I must say they are awesome for a daily. The car handles a lot better while keeping the comfort and compliancy at fairly stock levels.

The car sits lower than I expected but that isn't necessarily a bad thing as it's still definitely practical overall. I would definitely recommend them!
