Springs/Suspension question

Suspension guys hopefully you can help. I was running Eibachs on KYB AGX's. I took them off and went to stock springs becuase the ride was just to harsh for my taste. However there was a 2 week period when I was running the eibachs up front and the stocks in the rear. The ride was not to harsh and the handling was still there. My problem is I realy miss the handling capabilites of a lowered car. How bad would it be for the springs/struts to put back the eibachs up front and leave the stocks springs in the back. Thanks for any advice.

As long as your comfy with the ride and handling, there will be no adverse effects of running that combo. There are many on here who often ask if mixing springs would hurt. They wouldn't hurt the car, but can hurt the ride and performance. In your case, you ran it and the car seems to ride and handle fine for you. So be it that way and run that combo.

Or just switch to H&R's or Maxspeed all around and enjoy some great handling, looks and a comfy ride.

Spring combo

I like the ride as is, but I really miss the handling I think I may put in just the fronts as long as it wont increase wear and tear on the car or anything else.
