Comp Tech, or what?
Hey you'all...Comp Tech seems to be the "popular springs" for lowering. Are they the best? I here that Tein's are nice, due to the abilty to adjust them later if you prefer. 3putt, can I ask how much the CT springs set you back, and how easy it was to install...I definately need to lower!

the springs were about $240-$250. the install was about the same. it was purchased and installed at my dealership. this way, it was still covered under my warranty.

Thanks again...I did my wheel and tire package through Tires.com/America Tire Company (about 2000$ for the whole setup). I looked through Tirerack, but I felt the options were very limited. HOWEVER, the ones you got look fantastic
I'll post my pics as soon as possible!

i use the car as a daily driver in NJ where the roads can be very unpredictable.
i've had my share of bent wheels....don't really want to keep replacing them...

I see those wheels are very lightweight....Did you notice a difference in acceleration? Or did the wheel being lightweight just negate any loss you would have had by upgrading wheels?
Thanks
Thanks
