I was wondering which prings should i go for and im stuck with these two. a little help will be good. Its going into an 86 GXl stock. well later on im planning on putting 17x7 so i want to know if there will be rubbing issue. thanks alot.

here are the links

Tanabe

Teins

I have tein s techs on tokico blue shocks. They are okay to soft for me. I wish I woulda saved up for coilovers at least megans or got racing beat springs instead. The drop on it is good enough. The front has 1 finger gap and I have 15's with 60 series tires.

I have no experience with the tanabes use the search button to help find info on it.

My advice just save up and go to coilovers. I wish I had done that.
thats my $0.02

 

alright thanks so i guess a one inch drop would take you down to a finger or two.well what about tanabe anybody have experance with those.

 

make sure those Teins arn't counterfeit

thats what i plan on doing. Good springs and shocks can get up to $800, and you can get coilovers for a little more.

 

thanks for the warningi want a good set of spring that is under 200 but maybe over 200 a little will be find. any recommandation and also would like a links to the product too if you dont mind.

they are not hoax ones. i bought a set from them a little while back and they are the real deal.

also they feel great. even on stock struts.

 

well is it bumpy at all. cause i like it to be a little bumpy and how about the cornering.

 

cornering is pretty decent but as for bumpy i would say mild. its kinda hard to tell being that my stock struts are worn out. they blew out about 2 months after i put the springs on. but i guess 150XXX struts will do that.

 

do you have a picture of your car. if you do i would like to see how low it would be. thanks

 

not right now i dont but ill try to get one for ya

 

thanks pm me when you got it,. thanks alot i better go to sleep now its late and i have school tomorrow and im only a minor. thanks alot.

 

any one out there have tanabe spring. i would like to know how the ride and cornering thanks. if its possible can i see a picture of the car with tanabe spring.

 

or any recommanded spring that is not over $250

 

I have tanabes but have wore out tires so I have no idea how well they handle, but it feels pretty good even without getting to push it very hard. Rides good. Definitely need a camber kit to stop uneven wear.

 

i think i made a decision not to go over 1 inch drop, i want a spring that will be a little bouncy than my stock one. i dont want it to go too low where the fender will be level with the tires.

 

tanabes are the ****, good way. i love them, ive riden in a car with same setup as mine with teins, and i love mine wayyyy better. I got pics with 17x9's and pics with stockers. Give me ur email and ill send them to you.
