JDM lowering springs? There are companies that produce suspension components in Japan, but wouldn't consider them JDM because you can get them here.

Well, ride comfort depends on the spring rates in combination with the dampening (struts).

you should not be getting spring just because they are "JDM" when it comes to suspension you need good quailty

is JDM a brand name now?

Why not order USDM lowering springs? You will probably save on shipping then.

Are you using stock shocks? Aftermarket shocks?

I wouldn't pay anything less than $150 for new springs.

also, no less than $300 for non-adjustable shocks, and $400 for adjustable.

That's just my quality/satisfaction rule of thumb.

Do it right and only have to do it once.

lol, JDM lowering springs.

I bet they add a few Horsepower.

Springs are springs. USDM or JDM.

People who can't speak mildly proper English when they grew up in America need to be cleansed.

Are you kidding me? Yes, because Spoon is the uber in JdM TytE bling yo. Sheesh.

Why not just pick up a set of Eibach or comparable namebrand springs? Just because it is on EBay and listed as JDM doesn't make it a quality or even useful product.

Have fun and goodluck with whatever you decide.
