Go for Eibach, best spring around if u don wan kangaroo ride. Only downside is its a bit pricey. In my opinion you are in danger of spending more from trying all source of cheap spring and end up not satisfied. Good luck

My experience........And 2 other people

Well, nothing much to say except they were great in the beginning.

Until i think the 8th month or less than 1 year, they tend to get very soft.

I changed to APM both spring and absorbers. Lasted for about 1 year ++.

SO can u tell me what is your rating for the GAB spring? Because i planned to buy it for Altis..How low it lowered the car in (mm) ?

Beacuse im not very very satisfy with that chiplak Kimex..I tot it was good and quality good too which is mention on the box.. Sucks
