Hi,

I am doing some suspension work on my del sol (replacing lower ball joints and control arm) and noticed my struts are leaking and the spring is cracked and rusty.

I just purchased KYB GR2 for $65 and am not looking to spend too much money on big set up.

Which spring will work with the KYB shock since they are OEM? I know lowering the car will blow out the struts but I have heard people use Tein s with stock struts and have had no problem.

I was curious because Eibach pro line has 1.2 drop and Tein s has 1.8 drop. I know the smaller the drop the better it is for the struts. But I heard people saying that Tein s are good for stock struts. I just want to confirm it before I purchase it.

Also, will I need a camber kit for any drop?

Thanks,
Terry

 

personally Id go eibach on stockers.

at around 1.5 inch you shouldnt need a camber kit

 

I've personally had the Eibach Pro-Kit on 2 of my previous Integras. Ride/handling/height was perfect for daily driving. THey were matched with Tokico blues. I'd go Eibach.

 

Eibach is way better than Tein when it comes to lowering springs.

 

Thanks guys.
Just purchased Eibach, it was only $50 more than Tein S.

 

Eibach > Tein. Enough said.
