that sucks...lucky me i go pick stuff up at options all the time and dont have to pay for shipping
I would go with some Tanabe GF210 though...they are sexy.

Man up and save a couple of bucks just drive.

FYI though i believe options does not currently have em in stock.

Hey buddy,I think you canyon and track your 8
why dont you buy a whole set of coilovers instead of just springs?
It cost the same labor.
I bought my used megan coilovers for only $350
Brank new is like $700+ now
dont waste the money on just springs
I've been into mazdaspeed springs + shocks, but end up with coilovers, totally different, coilover looks/ performance FTW

If you are installing the spring yourself, it's fine
coz they charge quite a bit out there
for the springs, they also need to fit in the shocks, even more process than just install the coilovers, coz the coilovers comes with springs in the shocks already

ah ya if they are temps then go for it...friday is not too far away a wait anyways. I been thinkin about going coilovers as well. Just so I can adjust the height really. I am probably going either with the Tanabe S-0C or their Pro-Five. Just debating whether the extra $400 is worth it.
