For sure brother.......Gotta help out a fellow future Sportcross owner! Hope you get one soon bro!!

Stance is coo but Megans is the better bang for your buck.

 

both sets of coilovers are very nice. does anyone know anything about the Megan lowering springs? they are supposed to be a 2" drop all the way around. has anyone had these or know anything about them? i'm currently at 1.4" drop with my Eibach sportlines and have been thinking about going lower to Megans for the 2" drop, but am not sure of quality and etc. plus you wouldn't really notice a .6" drop on the car too so i'm not sure about them yet.

 

I have the Megan springs....previous set-up was Prokit with OEM struts.

Megan Racing springs and paired it with the Tokico HP (blues) shocks. I predicted this combo to be a perfect match for my Hotchkis sways and DD driving. Boy, I was right! The drive is definitely noticeable from the previous set-up.

I don't know if it's the springs and struts together or just the sways being together with the two. The handling is much better. I feel that the sways better suits the megan springs and tokico shocks more than the prokit and oem struts. It's like this whole time I haven't really felt the potential ride with the Hotchkis sways until now. It's a great combo altogether. The ride is firmer with a sportier feel. As for comfort, I honestly feel that this set-up is comfier than OEM. Here's a crappy cell phone pic..

 

Thanks a lot man! Been wanting a sportx for about 6 months now. Its really hard to find a good deal on one. All I find is overpriced ones that dealers are selling. But im trying really hard to buy one in the next month

By any chance do you know what size wheels are on the blue IS you posted?
I cant decide whether to go 17" or 18" on the wheels

 

Damn dealers with their overpricing.

There's one for sale locally here in WA. Let me know if you want to see the ad.

Specs on profs: 18x9/10 +37 w/ 10mm spacers all around so +27 all around. The tires are Falken 912's 215/35 and 235/35.

I prefer 17s because of ride quality, weight, price, and durability. When you are slammed, 17s look like 18s imo.

 

Yeah if you can please provide me the link ill check it out. I currently have my eye on a ggp one right now

Thanks on the specs. Yeah I was leaning towards the 17's for the same reasons as you because I am trying to slam it when I get it

Your wheels on the earlier post are 17's right?

 

Will do, let me go find it. It's GGP too all stock except it has a carbon fiber hood.

Yup, mine are 17s and I am not even slammed but I am satisfied with it (for now). =)

 

cool thanks!

In that case im def going with 17's, your car looks good keep it up man

 

i love it, it sits nice. after hearing all that I might consider the Megan Springs for sure, and for the price they seem like a steal. Here is a picture of the way my car currently sits, my only concern is with the Megan springs I won't really notice much more of a drop, what do you think? Eibach Sportline springs 1.4" drop, stock struts.

 

I read your post in the other thread on these springs in Suspension & Brakes. After reading about the fitment issues I have decided to keep my Eibachs. I'm sure they are very nice springs, I just don't want to buy new struts and have to make the springs work. My Eibach sportlines fit to the struts like peanut butter and jelly go together, plus it sits nice. although the Eibach springs are about three times the price of the Megan Springs.

 

i know a couple evo guys that use them for track/DD and autocross and they have no complaints. its not a is300 tho
