Stock R53 Springs

Category: Brakes
Price: $1
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits (you may select multiples): R53
Location (Region): Canada
Item Condition: Used

I am trying to find some stock R53 springs. My car came with aftermarket springs. I'm not a fan being this low (car hates speed bumps and potholes are a nightmare) so I'm searching for some stock R53 sport suspension or SS+ springs. I will be pairing these springs with new Bilsteing touring shocks/Struts. Please let me know if you have some kicking around.

thank you

I don't have a clue what springs are on their right now. I'm the third owner and it was the first owner who made the mod. I was hoping that I might get lucky and have a fellow Canadian with extra springs. If I don't hear anything by Thursday I will make an offer to those that PM'd m. Thanks everyone for the responses.

PM me a pick of the best angle you can get on one of the springs and I might be able to tell you what brand they are...

I have a stock set as well. Same as the others, PM me with an offer. As a starting point, I just sent a set of lowered springs (still in US) and it was $17 for shipping

bump, the original deal fell through (no fault of the seller.) Still looking for some R53 super sport or super sport+ springs. Ideally from a Canadian address, but a US address works.

Let me know what you've got.

Thanks

For those of you with the stock R53 super sport springs laying around - I'm interested in getting a set for cheap to put on my R50. Also looking for a stock R53 rear sway bar with the bushings and mounts. Hoping to get the whole lot for $50 shipped, but I understand shipping might not make this feasible. Let me know...

Are they the complete assembly with rubber pads and top mounts, etc.? Do you have the rear sway bar too?
