Springs - Which Ones?

[Silver_Shadow]

Hey all! Thats right im back!!! lol!! Sorry i have not been in for awhile - me and the CTs are doing great :-) lol!

Im wanting to drop the car 30mm - what was wondering which spprings are you guys using and which ones are the best ones and where i can get them from?

I have the Eibach Pro springs on my CTS and am very happy with them, as it's made a noticeable difference to the handling, plus the ride is still comfortable with them on.

I have tte dropped 30mm made quite a difference to the cornering abillity.

easy to fit if you do it yourself I did mine in around 3 hours.

if you do it yourself make sure you reposition the top plates on the fronts correctly.

Hi Tsportkid,

Quite fancy the TTE springs myself - how much did they set you back if you dont mind me asking (£150?) -

I dont think I'd fit them myself - any ideas how much a garage would charge to fit?

As far as im aware I wouldnt need to replace any of the other components of the suspension as the springs are designed to work with all the standard kit - is this true?

many thanks

You would'nt need to replace anything else when using the tte stuff

I paid £70 for mine from eBay bargain eh?

The book time for replacing front and rear springs is around 4 hours, I did mine in 3 hours

expect to pay around £35 per hour local garage or £70 local dealer

ESPDesign Were the cheapest place I could find the eibachs when I bought mine :)

As for TTE springs it'll either be eBay (if you are lucky to spot some) or your friendly neighbourhood Mr T.

I believe the tte items are around the £150 mark

The good thing about the tte springs are they dont destroy the ride quality
