Need opinions

Hello FitFreaks. I need some help before really buying something. So first off i have a Black 2011 Honda Fit Base model. And i Want to lower my car on some springs giving me between a 1.5-2.0" drop. My choices in lowering Springs are Tein S Tech or Eibach sportline or pro kit. Im not rly familiar with lowering springs But i am with coilovers with i use to have fully adjustable coilovers wen i had my EP3. which i loved. So in this thread I needed some help about my options if there is any other springs post give link or watever. Also if u r on the springs describe your ride feel. My fit is daily driven commuter but i gota love canyon runs.

Why not go full coilovers? Ongoing group buy that might get you a set at a good price...

Yea if you plan on getting coilovers eventually, I'd just wait. But if you really want just springs, ill sell you my s-tech's for $150. Only have like 5k miles of use. More drop than eibachs, and ride is plenty comfortable with them.

180 + 30 vs. 150 + whatever shipping

Your choice either way.

if you aren't gonna go with t1r s-coils (what i'm on); then go with these (in this order)
-s techs
-swifts
-eibach

just personal preference. i think you should be perfect on stechs with what we talked about
