Ok I'm going to be getting some springs for my tibby and I have some questions to ask. <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>
Ok so we have:
<ul><li>eibach with a 1.2 drop</li>
<li>B&G with a 1.5 drop</li>
<li>H&R with a 1.5 drop</li>
<li>intrax with a 1.8 drop</li></ul>
My questions are:
I'm going to be leaving my stock rims on for atleast awhile, so will all of the above work with them?
Which are the best?
Will I hit bottom with the lowest at 1.8? And where can I find them to buy online? <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>
Thank you <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

I've heard that H&R is made by eibach. Is that true and do you recommend them? I've also heard that intrax is not the best choice. I just didn't want to get the 1.2 drop and not be able to notice a difference.

well I'm leaning more towards the H&R since they seem to be affilated with Eibach and they will give me a 1.5 drop. As far as the Intrax springs, having a 1.8 drop, will I be able to make it ok over speed bumps? The reason I asked is they are all over in my college parking lot and there is no way to avoid them. I DON'T WANT TO MESS UP THE BOTTOM OF MY CAR. <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_evil.gif border=0 align=middle>

Well I didn't say that I was <i>getting</i> the H&R for sure, I just said that I was heading in that direction because more people recommend them then the Intrax. <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle> Ok, another question for everyone. If I get the 1.8 vs the 1.5 or 1.2 will the ride quality be better or worse with a lower drop. I'm concerned about the way it looks, but I'm more concerned about the way it handles. <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

Hey Redshark,

I'd go with the Eibach... oh wait <b>I DID</b> - LOL!

It's a noticable drop and the guy from Tirerack was very helpful.

TiGgEr is right on with the "get a wheel alignment" but just not right after.
You should drive the car about 1 week to let the springs settle and then get the alignment.

Also the Eibach with 1.2" drop does not need the camber kit, at least not on 2nd gen tibs.

PS Your car will look sweet with those white wheels!

I appreciate your info very much. I want to lower my car, but I want to make sure that it's done correctly. <img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle> I guess that it's kinda sorta like the bpv for the cai's. <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle> I want insurance that nothing bad will happen. I will definately be getting the camber kit with my springs..what ever kit I decided to get LOL <img src=icon_smile_shy.gif border=0 align=middle> I won't be getting them until the beginning of Dec so I have a while to decide. <img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle>
