sprint spring colors

Ok im buying a set of sprint springs from a guy and Im was wondering whats the diffrance between the blue sprint springs and the red ones. The ones im buying are red. Well im dropped about 2 inches( witch is about how low I want to be) now from heating the spring but im ready to go ahead and get new struts and spring to fix my ride.

Yeah i have the blue one's i love the drop on the and i couldn't beat the price 333 shipped for the sprint springs and the St struts. But now i wrecked my max so im just goin to get the Kyb gr-2 in the front. The sprint springs were well worth my money and the ride isn't too bad.

If I'm not mistaken the red ones are actually Dropzone springs which may or may not be the same as Sprints...

i know that the b+g springs are red...maybe that's what you're looking at. i know the drop is quite similar.

Drop zone doesn't make springs for the 3rd gen

I had dropZ's in a mustang. There wasn't enough drop and they were as stiff as errrr uhmm. (Something really really stiff).

They suck.
My BLUE sprints are nice though!

i have blue springs i've never seen any red ones, but they ride pretty good and they give the lowest drop, that i'm aware of.

3rdgenmaxima,
st struts? as in suspension techniques struts?

Yes as in suspension technique struts, i got all four plus the sprint springs for an awesome price on ebay. But I had an accident and now i have to get new front struts, well one but it's good to replace both hell they might be fixable i don't know. I just ordered the Kyb Gr2's for the front and i'll keep the suspension techniques in the back.

Yeah thanks for the correction, spring tech yeah those are it. They are ok i guess i really don't know. I can compare them to the gr2's, when i bought the car the shocks were blown. But im also getting this and im for sure about this one the suspension technique fsb. So the suspension will be a little more tighter, the spring tech were just affordable struts.
