Default Tanabe NF210 or Eibach Pro Kit?
Which springs do you recommend for the SC300 with MKIV TT wheels and Tokico HP SC300 shocks?

Tanabe NF210 (SC300) or Eibach Pro Kit (SC300)?

Thanks.

Slow_Sc3,

Do you also have the Tokico HP shocks as well with this setup?

Yup, that's what I had in mind -- Tokico blues (HP)!!! Good to hear that the Eibach/Tokicos are a good setup for the MKIV TT wheels.


Slow_Sc3:

What size tires are you running on your SC with the MKIV TT wheels?

Anyone running the Tanabe springs that would like to show pics?

Been considering purchasing these over the Eibachs, Eibach claim to lower 1"-F and 1"-R. Not sure if that would be a sufficient drop.

Tanabe claims 1.2"-F and 1"-R.

Can anyone concur?

Plan to run springs until I can afford a quality coilover like STANCE. Purchasing used is not an option.

You can look up for Blisiono's picture when he use to have Tanabe NF210. He has 19s and honestly, the drop looked very weak to be honest. They're probably fine for stock wheels, or even 18s at most.

Found out today that Eibach discontinued their Pro Kit for the SC300!!! The only Eibach Pro Kit still available is for the SC400. This forces me to go with Tanabe NF210s.
