Vogtland Sport Springs

Anyone using these springs ? http://www.pelicanparts.com/promo/vo...paign=20141128
Seems like a great deal...Wondering how they compare to the H&R sport springs... For $200 it may be worth it just to check 'em out...

I thought the same thing when I looked at them, in the end I decided to go with the H&R because of reputation, and I'm happy with the choice.

Have you installed the H&R springs yet? Stock shocks/struts? How do you like the feel/performance? Thanks

Yes, I have had them installed now for about 6 weeks. I only did the springs as my car was lightly used when I got it and the shocks/struts were almost new. I have the C4S, it gives the car IMO just the right amount of drop. The ride is about the same, maybe just a little more stiff which I only notice on rough roads, but not enough to be unpleasant. Handles much better and it feels more grounded. Installation takes 8 hours, and you will need an alignment. I did post some pics in an earlier post, I'll see if I can find it.

Nice! Looks really good...Just what I was looking for. I don't and don't plan to track my car either, so I'm thinking the sport springs might be just what I need to give me a little nicer look while still keeping the feel and handling up to snuff for my needs (I like a "spirited" drive, but I'm no race driver - and don't plan to be). Thanks
