FS - 07-08 Tanabe GF210 Springs (MD)

I'm guessing that these springs are compatible with 07's as well - I'm out of the loop. Might wanna check on that.

If I recall correctly I payed around $180ish for these new awhile back. Spent about 9000 miles on my 08. I think $100 would be reasonable. (plus shipping)

Location - Southern Maryland. Buyer responsible for shipping. It will arrive in the Tanabe box.

Yeah, I believe it's 1.5 inch front/.9 inch rear. Unfortunately don't have a photo of the rear, but it's similar. I'm guessing the difference in drop is to create a similar sized wheel gap. Most springs for FWD cars I've seen have been similar.

There isn't a dramatic difference in ride quality - I never found myself in a situation where I regretted the swap. The car felt a lot more planted in the corners - I could only imagine what they would do along with anti-swaybars. My previous car was a 2005 STi and the first thing I noticed about the Fit was the body roll. I went with these springs first, then was planning on anti-sways, but I was content with the car after just the springs. I could imagine the ride being a little uncomfortable on rough city roads, but the Fit's ride in these situations isn't luxurious to begin with so I figured I wasn't missing out on anything.

The reason I'm selling them is because my parents were planning on buying a Fit after I got mine - they commute a lot more than I do so I offered them mine. I'm returning the car to stock for them.

I'll send a PM.

Yes. They're perfectly fine on the stock struts. Ride is slightly bouncier, say driving up a driveway or on a terrible city street, but otherwise it's not noticeably worse. Body roll is greatly reduced.
