Lowering springs. Eibach or H&R ???????????
I am thinking of lowering my C4S. But, I am afraid the conversion would make the ride to harsh ?? I have the stock wheels and tires with 15mm spacers front and back.

I would like to know some opinions on these springs. also, the pros and cons of lowering the suspension.

Thanxs.

it's all subjective as to what your **** deems acceptable along the harshness front.

i'm lowered on pss9s and it's set at medium and i'm totally good to go. i'm never too tired of the ride quality.

and the improved looks when lowered is .... priceless.

you should have only 15mm spacers in the rear... 15mm spacers in the front would be

well, you should consider two things when lowering your car: 1) better handling if setup correctly 2) more aggresive looks...

two things you may give up when you do this: 1) more harsh ride 2) not as relaible as OEM


and just my 2 cents, but stick with the entire coilover setup... springs alone are only half the job!
