If you get sportlines, you can pick them up from modern performance. They're a forum vendor and they're located in houston which means you can drive to their shop and pick them up. If you go with cm, you'll have to order them online and wait for them to be shipped out to you. Also another great thing about eibach is their million mile warranty.

I've been in a debate between CM and Sportlines for a while. I was planning on sportlines but then I heard from a few sources that they ride badly.

What people always fail to realize when changing out their springs is that ride quality isn't just in the spring. Its also in the shocks. If the shocks your riding on now are bad, you won't notice as much as if the car was on a lower spring. Upgraded shocks make a huge difference.

I have the SSC springs (Or Canuck Motorsports, I believe they are one and the same, no?)

Stock shocks/struts with 58,000 miles on them.

They seem to ride damn near the same as the stock springs. Shipped fast through ZZP. Price was right.

I would recommend them.

With stock size tires/wheels:



With 245/40-18's/Aftermarket wheels:
