I would save and buy coilovers, I am not happy with how my springs perform. Looks good, rides not so great.

I THINK WE SPOKE ALREADY LOL. I HEARD THAT THE EIBACH IS PRETTY GOOD NOT TOO BAD THE COILOVER ARE LIKE 1,000 PASO'S LOL THATS A BIT PRICEY I AM NOT A BALLER.. BUT I HEAR THEM THINGS ARE VERY GOOD THO, WHATS WRONG WITH YOUR RIDE? DO YOU HAVE THE STRUT BAR AND SWAY BAR? MY CAR IS BRAND NEW AND I WANNA TRY NOT TO VOID ANYTHING ON MY SPRINGS YA KNOW, BUT I JUST CANT STAND THAT WHEEL GAP IN THE FRONT OF MY CAR, IF YOU DONT MIND WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED?

Im in northern NJ. I do not have strut and sway bar, but that would not effect the impact of the springs on my ride quality. I feel like they have completely eliminated the effectiveness of the shocks and struts. Ride is ROUGH. Bumps in the road make me cringe.

I've gotten used to my ride quality. The improved handling is worth it to me. Although I will be upgrading to Tein Coilovers in a few months time.

How long have you had the springs on? and what tein coilovers are you getting into i think there are more then one. things go for atleast 1.000 easy pretty expensive, did you guys leave your stock struts on? cause i hear if you just get the springs your struts are gonna go real fast.

one more thing ranga how did you install your interior lights to make it orange i like it! i am talking about under your seat

yea i am in brooklyn i could just imagine how tough the road would be here

I think if you go to Stillen's web site, they're $1,300 but I hear you can get them cheaper now although unsure as to where, the Tein coilovers that is. I've had my Eibach's on since last November. I realize my suspension has taken a beating but it's not unbearable or anything. As for my lights. I got mine from Oznium. They sell many different kinds. I just got some strips and installed them myself with a switch and put it inside my storage area in the center console. Drilled a hole in there for it and have a double outlet extender thing coming out of my cigarette outlet and hooked up the wiring to that. So it's pretty much plug n play.

If you are running an 18 inch rim you can get the pro kit just fill the rest up with a meaty tire. it will help you ride. I have the pro kit and running 245/35/20 tires. I have had my kit on for about a year. Every time I have gone in for an alignment it has never been out. As for the ride it does not ride to bad. After all it is a sports car and the ride was never plush.

[KINGJON1983]

I think i am running on the same tire as you as well. when you say alignment you mean the tires correct? my question is if i get the pro kit will i mess you my struts and kill my suspension. my car only has 13,000 miles on it. i thank all you guys for the help

I actually got a set of eibachs for my 2010 a month ago but they are currently sitting in my room and will prob sell them since all i hear is that they're good like for 2 years but after that they take a toll on your shocks and struts as DJBeasy explained.

From what i've read on the forums, eibachs are a gradual way to crap up your suspension. I feel so guilty having them within my possesion since everytime i look at my 2010 all i see is this COLLOSSAL gap...your best bet is to save $$ and get coilovers (maybe put aside like $20 a week). I prob gunna end up doing that...

THE COILOVERS ARE LIKE A 1,000 IS THERE A SITE WHERE THEY ARE A LIL LESS EXPENSIVE? ALSO WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE BOTH, I HEAR COILOVERS ARE VERY BUMPY FOR THE STREETS IN BROOKLYN! DOES ANYONE IN THIS SITE HAVE COILOVERS ON THERE CAR?
