2.5TL_96

Hi everyone,

I have a 96 2.5TL with a little over 85,000 kms on it. I am planning on lowering it asap. I was looking into the Eibach Sportline, but I've read some so-so reviews.

I noticed in this forum https://acurazine.com/forums/1g-tl-tires-wheels-suspension-103/finally-some-part-numbers-springs-shocks-744440/ that H&R springs can be used on the 2.5TL. The part number is: 50103

I called H&R to confirm but they said that they don't make springs for the 1996 2.5TL. I also noticed that Tire Rack has these same springs. Has anyone used H&R on their 2.5TL? Was this the part number?

Thanks guys,

Ok, thought I'd give everyone an update - H&R does not make springs for 1st Gen TLs. I spoke to someone from H&R and Tire Rack, both confirming this.

Does Tien make a spring for our TLs?

I don't think so. Maybe bigwerm187 can chime in..he has Tien but I think it's from an accord?

His are for a 1G TL. Just call them to obtain them.

I have an interesting story: I found TEIN springs for the 96 Honda Inspire. Apparently TEIN discontinued production. I spoke to a rep and they said they could reproduce these springs for me at a cost of CDN $600. Seems a bit uneconomical, considering you can get Ground Controls for US $400.

add a little more and get some real coilovers. did TEIN tell which engine for the Inspire. you still have the i5 or v6..lol

Oh you're right! They didn't mention. They just said they could reproduce the Honda Inspire springs. I'm thinking of just getting some Eibach Sportlines…1.7" all round, or save up for Ground Controls.
