nice, how much did you pay for them? I found what think is a good deal and just wondering. What size rims do you have? and how do the springs ride? did you replace the swaysbars too?

thanx
chris

Is the Tanabe GF210 springs linear or progressive? doesn't say on their website.

Their spring rates seems pretty suitable for street driving.

I also have Tanabe GF's on Tokico Illumnias... i think the ride quality is awsome... not too soft and not too stiff ... still has a little comfort while driving =)

yeah I think the ride quality is awesome, no regrets what so ever and I think it lowers the car more than most other springs, you will need rear camber rods real soon after putting them on though
