If you want a good balance of comfort and handling, EIBACH is the best choice, imho. I've used it before and its very, very good. Of course, its even better if you pair it with good shocks.

for those out there looking to lowered their car w/o having to install adjustable
that always come with a stiffer spring,why not try tanabe NF n match it with
a gas abs.it should be great for town driving.

Default Re: Eibach, Tein, GAB or tanabe??? for ultimate comfort

can any sifus help me here..

currently im driving wira se auto..using stock 1.6 absorber and original 1.6 spring (not original wise spring). so my ride is a bit higher compared to the standard wira se..maybe about 1 finger gap..

im planning to change my absorber (front + rear) to improve comfort. Just looking for a good spring to match with..

my priority is comfort..then only comes performance..i drive from wangsa maju to putrajaya daily (about 90km, 30% city and 70%highway)..normally, i will drive around 80kmh to 130kmh..depend on the traffic condition..and if possible, i will take the corner at that speed also..however, sometimes when i balik kampung to penang, i drive up to 180kmh with full loaded bonet (with cloth, bla, bla, bla) and max 3 passanger (wife, sis in law and my son)..

if possible, i would like to maintain my current height (which is higher that stock wira se)..easier to take the bumps in kl..however, im also willing to consider a spring that will return my ride to the stock height..

so, anyone can propose a spring that can be matched with improve comfort absorber which can suits my driving style and priority..currently in my list, eibach n tein..but still need to survey on the price and series..also willing to consider other brands such as gab or whatever..as long as the new setting does not make my ride to low..meaning the the decrease in height is not to significant..i dont want to take risk riding it with such a heavy kargo (including myself..hehehe)

and by budget is around rm700 max

tq

A few people have said - Eibachs are very good. Eibach Prokit. lowers by around 10mm to 15mm as compared to stock. Not too low for bumps.

Sidenote: Anyone selling 2nd hand Eibachs for 1.6/1.8 Wira? :P might wanna get.

I'm using R3 springs now, its not as good. sigh.

I am also thinking of getting eibach pro-kit...but too costly...currently using adjustable...the brand is HIT....not really for performance but comfort is moderate.....but bounce a lot....

I just changed to Eibach Pro Kit for my car. It's pretty good, not very bumpy but a tad too low :( It's 2 fingers gap front/rear so almost every basement car park would be a problem for my front lip and skirting. Is there a way to increase the height by another 1 finger gap (approx. 8-10mm)?

by adding that thick rubber would it cause unstable in handling?
