Default Cheapest place to buy H&R Sport Springs??

I remember someone giving me a link to a site for H&R sport springs being sold for 165 shipped but i dont remember who it was. so i was hoping you guys could help me out because i dont want to pay too much for them because the springs are supposed to hold me over until i get my coilovers. if you have any ideas or if you have a site that is cheaper, post it up. thanks.

btw: my car is a 88 4dr

Why don't you just save the $165 and put it towards the coilovers?

unless you remember specifically different, it was probably some classifieds, i don't think h&r sells them new to retailers that low. anyway, good luck, and free bump.

I can't stree enough, buy something of quality, and H&R springs are not quality in my eyes. Buy coilovers you'll be thanking me later, and your ride quality will be way better. Just don't get tein, unless you like your ***** being bounced around. K-sport, B&G, JIC, cusco, zeal ect......... Stick with name brands, they are worth the money, but research before you buy, that way you get the coilovers that best suit your needs and wallet.

There's a reason why we say to save your money for coilovers, we've been there bouncing around, it sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!! Buy quality and you'll have the biggest smile on your face, and your girlfriend won't punch you in the nuts because her ***** hirt.

I'd use an H&R product before I used any of those other brands.

With that said, I won't buy a spring that isn't made by Eibach or Hyperco - and I'm even more choosy with dampers.

Yes they have one of the best coil making machines the USA, but I do believe there are companies that are just as equal, their just not in the US. I have B&G coilovers and could'nt be happier, the best ride quality out of any honda I've ever riden in. Eibach's are nice, but why don't the offer a full coilover, or do they? Just a difference of opinions.

I bought mine like a year ago for $140(total) on ebay. I'd say ride quality is good.
(KYB AGX @1-softest setting all around / H&R sport) Even with the softest setting, handles great, no bouncing, no bottoming out.

I got H&R Sport Springs on my 91 hatch. No complaints. Ride is nice and firm. So long as you install them correctly there should be no reason for your girlfriends **** to hurt! lol.
