You should do a search in the Suspension & Brakes section. You can get alot of info there. But its all in what you want out of the car. I would say Sam is the man on springs. I run Eibach pro kit and there good and fine but if I did it over again I would go through Sam.

if u are gonna run true duals go with springs that don't lower the car too much or you will be scraping everywhere. Strano has a good name and has a lot of clients. I say search the threads and talk to sam.

Strano springs are actually lighter than the other aftermarket springs.

That's my reason for choosing him

Strano Springs. Pro Kits and Sportlines are too soft for the amount of drop (hello bumpstops!). For serious performance use, Strano is by far the best choice.
