Default which lowering springs are better?

sorry to bother people right now, so my suspension set up is, tokico blues, and eibach, proline(i think, its red) so my friend has a 93 hatch, and he has the yellow eibach springs, (i dont know what there are called), his car is crashed so were pretty much stripping it, and i dont know if his lowering springs are better...my lowering springs are a 1.7 drop, but i think it should go lower...do you guys think the yellow ones are better?...or are mine better....

if you gonna get spring, uprade shocks too, but i like gc alot, but i would definitely go with eibach spring. spring is way stiffer then coil, depend on the coil to be exact. why dont you put out some money and get a kit

they both made from the same company so the quality is the same, just that yellow or red 1 is depend on the drop height.

No the red one's are SPORTLINES as far as yellow one's go i don't think they ever made any that are yellow i know maxspeed makes some yellow springs (they suck) but personally i like my sportlines just need new struts.

I've been trying to research a set of yellow eibachs and haven't really come to any avail. The red one's are indeed sportlines while the black set are the pro-kit. The pro-kit i think is a 1.3in drop front/rear while the sportline is a 1.7in front/rear.

Hope this helps.

well he bought his car last year, so he wouldnt know, the springs look more softer, because theres alot more coils, and mine (the sportline) seems to have less, so im assuming it's lot more dropped and softer...
