Model..........................Spring Rate....................Lowering Front/Rear

DF210 for 300....................6.0 / 5.6........................1.8" / 1.3"

GF210 for 300(no GS4).........6.4 / 5.5.......................1.8" / 1.3"

DF210 for 400/430...............7.3 / 5.6........................2.0" / 1.5"


Which would be the best option for a GS 300? It looks like the 400/430 springs have a higher spring rate which means they would be stiffer. Which would be best for the stock shocks?

Thanks for the input.

Hey guys, we carry TANABE products, if you guys can get 10 confirmed members, then we'll get you a good deal on the springs.

How many do we have confirmed as of right now?

I am hoping to see if we can get even more than 10 people. What is the price difference between the DF210s for 300s and 400/430s, and GF210s for 300s? While it might be difficult to gauge at this point, can you give us a rough price for each of those three if we get ten people?

Thanks Derrick

i'm not saying the GF are any better than the DF, it's just a theory i have based on the spring rates. Good looks Derrick let's try to get some more people on board!

I just spoke to Derrick, and he seems confident that we can work something out. I hope that we can get some more people on board to make this beneficial for everyone.

I also asked him about the spring rates and he said that there is truthfully not much difference in the wear on shocks between any of the springs. He said that by 40K miles the shocks are almost work out anyway, and the soft stock springs are what continues to give us such a smooth ride. With that information, I think I may go for the 400/430 DF210s which offer a stiffer spring rate but also a slightly lower drop.

Thanks again Derrick!

not to be a buzzkill but your car may handle all funky using springs for a heavier car. then again, there may be a member or two who have used GS400/430 springs on a GS300. just a thought.

and sorry, i should've started with this first, but thanks for following up with Derrick

No problem man, and I appreciate you looking out! After talking to Derrick and Jcat I think I'm either going with the DF210s or GF210s, both for the 300. It will just depend on whats available and for how much.
