Opinions on Springs?

i'm happy with the hr's so far. they didnt kill the ride to much. seems to sit a little lower in the front which i dont car for, and i havent made it to the track on em yet either. but they are a good choice.

Did you have to adjust front camber so your tires didn't get screwed up? Or just alignment?
 
HA, i havent done anything to yet. i've just been rolling around however it sits. it tracks straight and all. but theres some serious negative camber going on. so, i'm sure my tires are wearing on the inside. its cool, i dont really like em anyways;)
 
I just put eibach springs on my 3. It rides the same, really no big change. It is my daily driver. I love it. Looks sweet and not too low where it tears your car to crap over bumps. It's 1.8 in the rear and 1.5 in the front.
 
I just ordered H&Rs from tire rack on Wednesday evening. They arrived today, Friday, afternoon. They are having a special on Koni yellows as well so I got the front set...unfortunately, they are back ordered on the rears so I ordered them from somewhere else.

All told 715$ for the entire set up and I snagged a set of SPC ball joints off of here new for 120 :-D
 
I know they arent springs but these are the struts I have on my protege I dropped about an 1 1/2" got like a finger gap. I love the ride its just the right amount of stiffness Im not bouncing around every where, or stiff like a rock. I got mine from Ken at PG for 5 bills struts and springs, shoot him a pm to see if he has a kit for your 6, mine are the HP these are the HB IDK what the diff is but hope this helps a little
