Would I notice a difference?

Yes well thats the obvious conclusion but I mean when driving what difference is there between whether you've just replaced springs or you've replaced the entire coilover?
Saying "how much you put in" doesn't exactly give me an idea of what differences there are between the two ..? There will be 4 new (lower) springs.. or 4 new coilovers.. unable to tell the differences it will make to driving from that.

I have tested every suspension on the planet and I know the difference, I just won't tell you

I can also read your mind & know how much you want to spend.

will help to answer 1st sentence of post #4

I just lowered my DC5 on kings springs. Basically they feel exactly like stock. The only issue is, it doesnt lower the car THAT much (35mm-40mm). If you want to go for a really low look, your best getting tein springs or better yet, adjustable coilovers as you can adjust exactly what height you want the car to sit at. Obviously, the lower you go with the springs, means you would have to upgrade your shocks as well. This would make your ride a bit stiffer.

As the others have said, the more you spend the better the mod. Obviously coilovers are the best way to go, but a bit pricy. Just depends how much you want to spend and how low you want to go. Hope this helps

Thanks for the reply, exactly what I was after - I'll see how I go budget wise, what wheel specs are you running?

I'd suggest you just ignore Bludger, as he takes every available opportunity to be an insufferable, argumentative ****.

Lmao cheers mate, I couldn't see a way to ask the question any simplier so figured that there was just something wrong with Bludger.

Nothing wrong in this wheels specs, from past experience I would recommend 17x9 as it does sit flush with the guards, however you will have to roll your rear guards

Hope this helps

Thanks for that, will see how much I can save before I get ahold of the wheels Could be the better option to just hold out until I can get adjustable coilovers as I'd hate to have the wheels rubbing.

Thanks again guys.

You asked what the difference will be between King springs and Buddy Club coilovers, and while I can't answer that myself, it's a simple question, and I'm sure that somebody who isn't a sarcastic arsehole will be able to help.
