lowering springs decision

i am looking at the BG Sport Springs and the TEIN S.Tech Lowering Springs, but cant decide.

i would like to hear comments from some people who have them, and would this be too low to keep stock struts? which struts do you recomend?
thanx

stock dampers with ANY aftermarket springs is not a good idea with our cars

do it once, do it right

get some good dampers.....

ps, esb has a good review of the tein springs

Jared, do the agx have elongated bolt holes for camber adjustment?

You know what drop both sets give you. Basikly the same
Only other thing would be to get the spring rates on them both and decide from that point.

The Teins are
180/110
fr/rr


I love the ride on mine. The best spring ive personaly road on in a J



I am all that is man

I just ordered AGX with sprint springs. I haven't set it up yet (I havent got the springs in yet). I'm hoping the springs aren't too low of a drop for the AGX (1.8in)

The AGX do not have elongated bolt holes, but you can grind out the bottom hole to set the camber. (beats buying a camber kit)
