ive looked throught the spring threads and everything i just wanted opinions from everyone. im on T1R v.1's and i hate them. they look terrible and i dont have enough money for coils i just need something with a good drop till i get my coils

 

eibach sportlines

 

are you 100% sure h&r is known for their big drop for just springs

 

swift usually goes lower than what they advertise, but eibach sprtlines go the lowest according to the numbers

 

Skunk2 Lowering Springs lower the Fit 2.00" (front) and 1.80" (rear).

 

cheapest solution... Cut a coil on the front and rears..

 

I'm on eibach sportlines... same drop as what skunk2 said the skunk's drop is.

 

I think the tanabe DF210 has good drop...

 

RS*R Ti2000 is the lowest I've seen.

 

^ just read it again ^
then, go do it.

 

Super ghetto. Are we back in '92?

 

ghetto as supposed to shelling out another 180-240 for ANOTHER set of springs ? some of us dont have a TOUGE/TRACK CAR and a DAILY so being ghetto is some times our only option and the cheapest way to go.. kthnx

 

oh and for some reason the eibachs sit a tad lower in the rear then the fronts but they are a lower drop the skunks for sure because i've had both skunk and eibach sports and i cut my skunks a little to much and switched to the sports with a coil cut and for over a year NO PROBLEMS on my ghetto fit

love it.
case closed.

 

Do you close up shots? I might do it, how's the ride? LMK

 

i can tell you what i think the ride feels like and then someone else can tell you.
but if you dont feel it for yourself then all three of us will have a different idea of what it rides like.- you know what i mean..?

i enjoy the way it rides. its kinda stiff but soft at the same time.

 

i can tell you when i had it like that....the way bill had his. it wasnt bad.


im getting coilovers within the next month, so i decided to see what my car looks like with it lower.

so i cut a total of half a spring in the front and 3 in the back. on teins

i dont advise it, but if you cut like 1 coil all around i didnt feel a difference in the ride.

you can do what bill did and thats prolly the max, and then you will start feeling the horrible ride quality. my mom didnt think the ride was bouncy and shes an old lady. now she doesnt want to be neaer my car i dont either !

 

haha, old ladies know a smooth ride when they see one

ya i want to be a bit lower in the front, but im not gonna cut any more- the front is a bit softer than the rear- but almost equal so i dont want to throw the balance off too much..

 

i use to have them like bill and drove fine as a matter aof fact bill did his after i did mine but now i have ksport coilovers and i love them even beter!!!!!!
