ive never ridden on the D2s but the CM or SSC springs are junk, Ive ridden in a few cars with them and they felt like ass.

Ive had Teins and Im currently on Pedders, those are really what to go with, the Teins were only slightly more bouncy than the Pedders are.

Just remember that if you are going to change out the springs it would be a good idea to upgrade shocks and struts, the TC stuff works nicely.

and calm down leg humpers, she already has guys buying her springs, I dont think your leg humping will get you much of a date lol.

l8r,
PD

You're the first person I've heard complain about the CM springs. Problem with Pedders imo is that they are a lot more expensive, and they don't give you a whole lot of a drop.

Yes the Pedders are more expensive but when it comes to suspension it is worth the money. I rode in the back seat of a car with CM springs, Im not a short guy and I kept banging my head on the roof over every bump. Just wasnt comfortable.

OP, congrats on the springs, I hope you have a better experience than I did, let us all know how it goes.

I gave my ss/tc stock springs to a friend (heh, a girl - what is it with girls getting free springs?) for her LS/LT, and it was a perfect drop.

Such an innocent girl response.

Just because he is a panzy about hitting on you doesn't me he doesn't want to. You dont just randomly buy your friends $250+ gifts for no reason.

When is the last time you bought your friend a laptop? Never that's when. With that said, continue to receive free gifts from him. Just remember guys dont even buy a beer without some kind of expectation.

I have d2's and they're okay.. not exactly even on one side, the rear passenger, I may just need to turn it.
shoulda' got h&r for the drop, but the front's are basically tucking tire.. a little bit.
