Which Springs...
I just got 19' Moda R6's for my CL-S, and I was wondering what springs I should get. I want to get a nice drop, but absolutely no rubbing or anything like that. Please let me know, I am installing the rims on Thursday, and I need to put springs on as soon as I can after that because I dont want my car looking like an off roader. :P Thanks in advance.

You guys have no opinions, or news about which one will suit my needs? I tried looking on Autocarparts.com for a phone number but there isnt one....

Well....
All the springs mentioned are made by eibach and just marketed under a different name. As to which springs to get for your car. I would go with the H&R or the comptech. If you have a big box (sound system) and don't have koni's or tokico shocks you will rub if you get anything more than a 1-1.5 inch drop with 19's. I would go w/the H&R unless you like the raked look.

It all depends on how low you want to go. Do you want to slam your ride on those 19s or do you want a more moderate drop that will be easier to deal with in day to day driving. Also, do you know the width and offset of your wheels? This will make it easier to determine wether or not you will rub with different springs.

The higher offset moves the wheel inside, the 45s may rub on the outside (notice I said MAY)...
The size of the tire (235/35-19) would seem to dictate the offset sitting around +48-52, with 52 being optimal (IMO)
