Default MY 04- Springs

Purschased a new Silverstone a few months back and have been considering lowering the car a tad. My questions are by how much? and what brand of springs? How much do springs cost and are they easier to install yourself?

Sorry for the bombardment of questions but this is foreign ground to me.

A basic spring swap is a short process, but if you haven't done it before, leave it to the shop. Shouldn't be more than $75.00 - $125.00 to have done.

A few spring choices. KG/MM springs makes a sport & race version. Race is real low.

Espelir is popular & what I have mounted. Good drop. H&R makes a sport model. A few others are out there but these seem to be the most reputable. Look for these brands on the forums & you can find pics of peoples cars with the specific spring. Some threads will have several in one place, especially the gallery threads.

Hope this helps. Shoot your personal e-mail address & I can send you pics of mine with Espelirs. You'll like...

get coilovers, and adjust them to your liking. those are easier to put on yourself if you have someone who has installed them before help you out.
