I think I'm going to go with H&R/Illuminas for the drop, and then the RSB (still haven't looked into that yet, but there are threads all over about it, I'll pick one of them recommended). Just wanted to throw a quick post up before I placed orders. Any concerns/comments? I went with this choice for ride quality and handling quality, it looks like this is the best of both worlds.

H&R are the best for close to stock ride, although some woudl say maxspeeds are good for stock ride too but lower. Tokicos are proven all aroudn the org for satisfaction , you'll be happy iwth the setup, good luck and get pics going when its done

<-------- Getting Tein S-Techs with Tokico Illuminas soon! I think that looks best... not too worried bout the comfort but if I was... I would have went with your choice!

Good CHOICE!

Once I get my car from trhe shop...hopefully next week I will install the Stillen kit and the Maxspeed with Illuminas........

how is the maxspeed compared to the H&R's comfort wise? I like the drop better on the maxspeed better.

its supposed to be very similar

look at housecor's site for a comparison

i kno that they are supposed to be a similar to the H&R's. was just wondering how people felt about the two that owned them both since maxspeeds are $100 cheaper.

and how is the ride quality with the progress springs?

I did a lot of my research there. I can't say enough good things about Housecor's site.

Glad it was useful! And excellent choice BTW.

Thanks! And also, thanks to your writeups, I'm probably going to do the install myself and save some money for some other mods

Love my Tein H Techs with the Illuminas. The ride is great. They are also the lightest springs out there for our cars. I also believe the drop is betterlooking & more even than both the H&R & Maxspeeds maybe some other org members will chime in on the H Techs . Your definetly going to find more H&R / Maxsppeeds supporters out there because the H Techs compared to those springs are fairly new. But you wont see anyone complain about there H Techs.

I have H-Techs and am very happy. Those are probably the best springs that I could buy for the Max without trying every single spring. I have 0 regrets about buying them. Which is saying something with my pickiness.

On a scale of 1 to 10 with stock being 10, I'd rate my Progress/HP ride a nice 7... I know that prob doesn't mean much to ya.... but I can say its good enough for me... its bouncy over mid to large bumps, but pretty smooth normally and on the highway...

Great, you guys go and get more thoughts in my head Now I'm going to have to do a little more research
