can anyone recommend some good springs to lower a MCS w/o affesting the SMOOTH ride? thanks

I've heard the M7 springs are one of the better riding springs out there. They are also close to stock comfort, as that was their intent. :smile:

 

Agree! and I think M7 lower the car more than others do too.

M7



Stock

 

not to mention they are on sale

I have heard nothing but good about their springs, and i think the drop they give looks amazing

 

I thought the Eibachs have one of the more aggressive drops?

I've used (using) Eibachs in the past on other cars with great
experience. On the MCS, Im running H-Sports with about 1" drop
all around. It's a great set of springs.

 

Karina, if you want there's a couple of us out here that have different springs on our car's that would be willing to take you for a ride. (I'm married btw )

I have M7's on mine, Lyle and Jason have Hsports. drop a line or pm if your interested.

 

I think the eibachs is the same as the H&R....about 1.2 inches

 

You can get the most drop and a good ride with coilovers. The KW V1's I had on the car before I went to their competition 2 ways rode and drove better than stock, the Competitions do to if you keep the bump and rebound turned down and the temps are above 40 deg. f. I run a 2" drop with the stock 16's but you need to watch where you're going and the air dam will rub sometimes still.

 

Ive got the M7's. The ride is really nice and gets progressive fast so there is very little body roll. Its a little bouncy though as the stock struts dont damping the rebound fast enough...


here is a shot of my car with the M7's. Wheels are Gram Lights 57S 17x8
