I am interested in making my car handle better and losing the 4x4 look. I just got the chassis stiffening out of the way (MM XL full-length subframes), and so I'm ready for some springs. I want something that will not make the ride too harsh, as it's my daily driver and I have to deal with horrible Pennsylvania roads. Right now, I'm leaning towards some C Springs because I can get a good deal on them. What would everybody recommend?

the c springs are great for the price, but on my car and my friends car, the rear end was too high, so we cut off the dead coils. It looks really good now though. If you have more cash I definately get the H&R Sports though.

I'm sorry to be picky, but what are the differences between the springs that have been mentioned? I'm talking about SOTP differences, not springs rates and whatnot (I can look up spring rates). Thanks in advance!

C Springs ride as good as stock, if not better, handles better also. There is definately less nose diving under hard braking. The H&R Sports drop the front the same as the C Springs if i recall correctly, but drop the back more than the C Springs. I've never drove or rode in a car with the Sports so I dunno how they affect handling or anything.

alot of people say the E sports sag. I like my Pro springs. they are a little firmer than the stocks which makes for good solid cornering and they still ride good enough for my mom to borrow my car.
