You already bought them, so why are you asking? Both of those are decent brands & should do what you are looking for. Ground Control is a good option for springs.

GR2 or AGX shocks? What kind of ride and drop are you looking for?

should have titled.. what kinda springs do you recommend.

I'd say since it sounds like your on a budget, get some Eibach Pro springs. 1.5inch drop in the front and 1inch in the back. They ride nice for the price. Im running Eibach pro springs with Tokico

I am also running KYB's and i went with the Tein S-Tech Springs. They are a nice drop in my opinion, but i know a lot of guys like to go lower. All a matter of Opinion.



I don't really like this pic but it is a good side shot to show the drop.


The S-Tech's drop the car 1.1" in the front and 1.2" in the rear and I think they ride MUCH smoother than my stock suspension ever did.

thats what im looking for. i bought gabriel struts with some of those cheap azz ebay coilovers and it tore everything apart. so im buying some kyb gr2's today and looking around for some good springs that are about even in handling and ride quality. i was also thinking of taking my old gabriels and trying to make my own coilovers with them and the cheap ebay springs... lol well see how that goes.

I STRONGLY Recommend the S-Tech's. I love the way they handle, and as i've said the ride is incredibly smooth.

It's the Wings West RS kit. There's a rear lip too but i didn't like the way it looked so it's collecting dust in my attic.
