Which SPRING is best for Protege5???????? ???

If I want to drop close to 1.8", keep the smooth ride, and good handling, which spring should I go for?
I heard H&R, Eibach, and Tein are great.
If anyone have used these springs, please leave feedbacks.
and where can I buy them cheap?

I liked the Eibachs more than the HR when i drove them. Felt much smoother, better reaction or something. It's been so long. I just remember after that I knew which one I personally preferred. I bought the HR's cause they were cheaper and then did a dealer car with teh eibachs and really like them.

Ive got the Eibachs & Like them the best. I think the H&R has a little bit lower drop though.

Eibach is the shnitz

I've done cars with H&R's in the past, but never Eibach's. This one is the first. They ride smoother, respond just as good, and still give a great drop. You won't be dissapointed....

I thought H&R drop 1.3 all around, whereas Eibach is 1.8 or something?

Correct on H&R's.

Eibach (for Pro5) is 1.4" F 1.2" R

Eibach (for sedan) is 1.4" F 1.8" R

You'll need to research a bit for the best price. I got mine from a local Discount Tire store for $200.00

Eibach all the way.

I wanna drop my car too, but I haul drums ALL the time. I would like to get the spool springs, since I heard they're the best riding...but a 2 inch drop with drums in the back? Hmm...Guys, I'm stuck on this one!

I sell the Eibachs.

Get the Eibachs from Mitch.

Eibach has been on the market for a looong time.

Ah, do you guys want to know a secret???

Installing the Sedan Springs i a Protege5 will drop about 1-1.2 inches in the Protege5.

Thats why you have to specify if you have the P5 or the sedan when ordering springs.

Has anyone compared between the Tein and the Eibachs ? (In terms of ride quality)
