Springs,Springs,SpringsSprings,Springs, Springs?!?!?!
Right when I had my sights set on getting some Neuspeed sport springs, I came across Eibach and H & R springs for a couple more dollars. Since the Archive is down I can;t go there so I must have some information and opinions quickly on which are better. I know everybody has some story or experience with one of these brands so put forth all the info you can.. Thank you all very much.

I think Neuspeed and H&R sport/race are the same springs. Eibachs don't lower as much

H&R sport and Race are DIFFERENT.. the race would give you a stiffer ride, along(MORE)
with a lower car.. Race lowers car 1.9" in the front and 1.5" in the rear, while Sport will lower you car 1.4" in the fron and 1.3" in the rear.. race = $ 250 sport = $235.. bilstein shocks are about $500.. if your going to replace srpings also do the shocks..<p>John

One more Question
Is it smart to get the H & R race springs and put them on the sport shocks or is it better just to get some new shocks? I don't have that much money so it may be better just to get the sport springs.
