Comptech if you want no hassles from your dealer.

Eibachs if you're the really sporting type.

Neuspeed if you own a VW.

H&R is probably the best all round spring.


I bought the Comptech from the dealer, for convience and no gruff. But, the lowering stance is a little front heavy and little bit too much gap in the rear. So far, I like the ride height of the H&R's the best.

Nice post, Closer.

Doesn't H&R offer a couple different springs for the TLS, though?

I'm really swaying (no pun intended) towards the Eibach. The ride wasn't too hard in my Accord (and we have some bad roads up here in the NW as you know). I just want to add Koni Yellows at the same time, and d*mn if they weren't too expensive I would do it. $500 all the way around. Heck, the Eibach ProKits and the Eibach Sway are $500 combined.

I wish I would be able to make it to the Seattle meet on the 22nd to check out how some look, and maybe even how some ride.

H&R offers 3 different sets of springs for our car. The first barely drops the car at all, the sports (which I did) drop 1.7 front 1.5 back, the race drop around 2.5 inches.

What problems in the rear??? I haven't had any problems. H&R only cost me $138.

SlimTypeS - We need to get a meet together in Vancouver, that way Salem and Portland members could make it.

I don't know what's wrong with the H&R...I had it for my 95 maxima...nothing wrong...so don't know
