Default H&R Springs?

Are they good and what are they worth? I can get a set for $169.

I can also get Eibach prokits for $190. Which are better?

i have h&r springs on my car with tokiko shocks and it handles great.... the drop is perfect and you dont scrape going up/down driveways and speedbumps are no problem.. i highly recommend

Which H&R's are you guys using? I want low, my buddy Ryan Autry has 2 1/4" drop on his 92SI. I want that look, but of coarse the performance to go with it...Are the race springs streetable with the AGX's? Thanks

i have sports... the race are streetable with kyb agxs (depends how much bounciness you can bare), but they might not hold up long enough... kybs are designed to help up to 1.5 " drop, but lower is at your own risk. koni yellow however would work wonders with h&r race springs. that's if you want that low of a drop.

personally, if u want that low of a drop, i'd sya eibach sportlines w/ kyb agx or koni yellow...

What do you plan to do with the car? If it's a street setup the H&Rs are great go with Koni yellow if you ever upgrade the dampener since the AGXs aren't that great (i'm using a set right now and they make lots of noise and the dampening characteristics suck). But if you plan to auto-x or anything else, then the H&R springs suck.

Eibach is better, but I got my H&R race drop spring for $140 and Tokico Blues for $250 (full set). The only thing I'd give'em up for would be TEIN's.
