Ok, i've seen the countless threads on here about springs, trust me I didnt my research. I have a 2001 Se with 17" falken hanabis with 205/40/17s on them. Now i've got 145k on it with stock struts and springs, so i figure its time to swap them out . Now I know i'm going to go with tokico struts, but i'm not sure on the springs. Now this car is my daily driver, and I want it lowered to get rid of fender well gap and increase performance, but I dont want it dragging on the ground.

What do you guys reccomend I go with in this situation? What do you guys use? I've seen a lot of pictures of them, but more can only help me make my decision!!! I've seen a lot of people saying go on ebay and get the tokico strut/spring combo for $400, is that my best bet? thanks guys!!!!

H&R hands down

Will a camber correction kit be necessary for the H&R drop?

any drop would require a camber kit....

I like the eibach sportlines... they are a pretty big drop, but I don't scrape much - probably cause I'm carefull about that. They are 1.8" in the front and 2.2" in the rear.

I had Mopars, never bothered with a new alignment and never noticed any wear problems.
But I'd suggest getting an alignment anyway.
And really any alignment shop should be able to do the alignment with the stock bits AFAIK.

Id recommend the eibach pro kit for a solid drop and decent ride quality. If handling is important for you, go with these, they wont disappoint. The work great with the tokico hp struts as well. If you can afford to go through tires about 25% faster, have your alignment shop hook you up with the ACR race spec alignment. You wont need to buy a camber kit, because the ACR alignment uses just enough neg camber that it isnt necessary. Otherwise, a camber kit is a must for straigth stock alignment with a drop.

I reccomend buying my mopar lowering springs. 1.5" drop, OEM ride quality. Best springs I've ever had in my life.

not sure wat springs are on mine since they came on the car but it dosent have the camber correction bolts or wat eva there called.... theyll be coming out soon enough ...will be for sale...rides pretty nice

I had dropzones...I liked them and they were very inexpensive.

im also kinda curious wats a good spring for rally.... for now im puttin srt4 springs on my kyb's but im most likely gunna get illuminas ....but on wat spring?.....needs to have sum lift to it higher then stock ride height.... ill be jumpin this thing

You don't need camber kits for the H&R's.

Oh, and, heres a little secret.......H&R makes springs for, TRD, Mopar, and Neuspeed.

I saw that picture you posted in another thread of that blue neon with the H&Rs, do you happen to have any other pictures? I searched around but that was the only one I found. I'll probably give them a shot as long as I like the drop, They have the drop that I'm thinking I want, but I want to see how it actually looks.

That is me.









I'm throwing my lip kit on today after work, so I'll have more pictures tonight. Awesome springs.

nice, looks good. I like the drop, enough so its definetly noticeable but not overly done. I'll probably be going with those.
