You should hitup Brian from cattman or go directly to the Progress site but you'll end up paying more...

Well people recommended Progress. So I am going to grab those but I don't know where. I always buy a product then a week later I see it for less.

You paid too much. If you are going to purchase a new mod, always purchase from a contributor of this site.

What else do I need other than the Springs? Do I need to replace the boots? Or just take old springs off and put new springs in?

Thanks!

if you have the dough get the new struts/shock, but they are not required. if you want to save some dough just keep the stock setup. i'm lowered on progress and i'm still on stock struts/shocks and haven't blown them yet...

LOL. Anyway, you dont have to have aftermarket shocks/struts, but it wouldn't hurt. Its up to you. Who will be doing the install?

It's a little early to replace the shocks and struts on an 07. I replaced mine on my 04 just cause I had everything apart. Same thing with the boots/bellows. Mine were dry-rotted and split but shouldn't be an issue yet on the 07. Save your money for other mods.

I agree with this. Its way early as I have an 07 also. You can do it yourself, its fairly simple, but you must pay attention to detail. Make sure you put everything back together as you took it apart. It is very easy to screw up the install and have all sorts of noises coming from the front suspension. See the thread i just made with some photos.

Search is going to be your best friend. To quickly answer your question, i have ridden on both eibach (current set-up) and H&R. H&R is the closest to stock ride comfort you are going to get. Very comfortable set up in terms of ride quality, but only a 1.4 drop in the front and much more is needed to even things out. Eibach is second best. I'm very happy with my set-up, not too harsh at all. I dont know about progress, though many people have said it makes the max ride like a bumper cart and arent progressive. A board member switched out his progress with tein and he liked them much much better.
H&Rs are great, but they wont lower your car enough.
