Sprint & ST Lowering Springs

I saw these springs on EBAY and did not know much about them. I want to get some springs to lower my 8, but I do not want to buy cheap springs that will wear out quickly. I was also wondering about the quality of the TEIN S-Tech Springs.

I hear good things about the Tein S-Tech springs. About the Sprint Springs, I too want to know more about them. Unfortunately, I can't gain access to their webpage.

rotormotor4- i have the sprint springs on my 8 and they work fine. the only thing is they're pretty low 2" drop all around. as soon as you drop them in you need to get an alignment done and your camber adjusted. our 8's have camber adjustments on them. hope that helps...

Sprint Springs...

...i Lowered My Nordic GrEen Rx8 With The Same Sprint Springs From Ebay. They Claim 1.75 Inch But It Is More LiKe 2 Inches. I Am Having Rubbing Issues Now. I Am Looking Into A New Set Of Fronts. I Have 19" Rims But I Would Suspect You Would Have Similar Trouble With The Stock Rims. It Look Good Though. Take A Look..
