Coilovers or lowering springs for 5g 2.2

Post by mr_pea » Wed Dec 04, 2013 3:50 pm

As above, car is back on the road and needs to look better!
Also, could do with a couple of tyres (225/45/17) or a nice set of wheels and tyres (minimum 17's).
Thank you, Toby

I have eibach springs -40mm. Let me know are you interested so I can make a photo of them. Also have bilstein front shocks for sale. All was used on my 4 gen but as far as I know they're interchageble (can someone confirm for sure please). Dont know how much for it but if you wanna them we will find the solution :)

I have a set of Tein Type Flex coilovers there I am selling, they will need new Top mounts for the front though, will put them up in the for sale section over next few days with pictures

I've got 17" enkei wheels (motegi ones) that have 2 good tyres and 2 shot ones (not sure if they are 40 profile or 45) and the wheels that are on it at the moment, but they need to go back on the 200.
Coilovers would be my first choice, but temporarily I'm happy to go with lowering springs. @k30dpc, let me know how much you want for them including delivery.

You can go for springs as long as you wont lower more than around 45mm, after that you'll need coilovers for a better driving experience (of course that is always the best way forward but when you have a budget springs will be fine as above ;) )
At least that's what I found out after my research on this item, correct me if I'm wrong :D

Could still do with 2 tyres and it's going to have to be coilovers and not springs as need height adjustable. Wheels not required now.
