agx's don't support more than a 2" drop, these skunk2 springs are deff. pushing it,( like 2.2" f, 2" r )

If you are not looking for coilovers I would recomend these skunk2 springs matched with a koni yellow adj. shocks,

but then again for the price of the koni's + the springs you could buy a set of k-sports..........

You love the springs? Oo, i honestly found no difference from stock when i bought the Tenzo R springs with KYB shocks/struts from my friend, except for the fact that it lowered it some.

and then if you have the money for krap sport then you might as well get some megans instead.

Koni yellows > AGX. they are more expensive. but my theory, tried and true. 'you get what you pay for'.

i personally have a set of STANCE GR+ pro's sitting here in my room.

Oh and about your "cutting the springs if they are too high" - that's definatly always a bad idea. Just a side note! Glad you're happy.

On the talk of Coil Overs, aren't they typically more than 3X the cost of something like Tein S-Techs and KYB AGX's?

I was just thinkin about doing that combo TIEN S.Tech springs and the KYB Shocks. Is it easy to install? Or should I take it to a Professional? I know a thing or two about 240's but idk if I can take on that task of changing the springs and shocks. Let me know.

Mine dropped my car about an inch and a half and it handles great well slideways anyway, They dont have that ghetto bounce. So thats a plus in my book for them
