Question DMS springs?

I hear a lot of people raving about these and can't find anywhere to buy them or find out how much they are. Could someone please point me in the right direction?

Thanks. Would you reccomend those over Eibach or BMR or HAL?

most people seem to hate Eibach because of the saggy rear syndrome. BMR springs seem to be ok- nice thing about them is you can purchase front or back individually (maybe others do this and i dont know about it). And HAL/QA1 is like comparing apples and tangerines or something- most folks seem to go for them for drag only cars.

For a great stance (and reportedly good ride and handling) DMS seems to be the way to go. Good price too.

Now why do you have to say that? That's not true. A lot of people like the Eibach LS1 Prokit. The rear springs are also used in the Sportlines so that they don't have to produce a second rear spring, so it tends to be a bit too low in the rear. It's easily fixed, though.

The only downside with the DMS and BMR springs is that they are progressive. Progressive springs are not the hot ticket for handling. Still, they do OK for "sporty" driving.
