Springtech 2" drop Review

There were no threads here on Springtech springs from ebay so I decided to buy some and test em out. Since I was already changing my shocks anyways. The drop looks very nice and the ride is more on the comfortable side. Its actually very close to stock with KYB gr-2's.

those are the same thing as sprints, i had them with GR-2"s and my shocks lasted me about 25k and i sold the car with them.


Just be carefull on speedbumps and other bumps.

Yeah the ride is pretty stiff with the setup if u ask me. I plan on just being careful with the GR2's trying to avoid bumps. I didnt have the $$ to get better shocks, but if I could do it over I would have just bought someones used setup from the for sale forum with better shocks instead of buying new GR2's for even more money.

But the handling is good and the drop looks nice. I cant complain.

25k would be fine. Thats about when I plan to sell the car. So far so good though and as far as being stiff? not at all(maybe 10% more than stock)

I know what you mean. I kinda like the stance though. I didnt know much about these springs so i was just hopin the back wouldnt be lower than the front end cuz that would look nasty. Im just wonderin if it really is a 2" drop?
I guess I should have measured the wheel gap before I had em installed. The whole setup cost me $290 w/o install, so I cant complain.
