Not sure if 03 lowering springs for an 03 Matrix XRS fit my 03 Vibe so I will like to know if these indeed fit?

I am modifying my Vibe on a budget and these are $63.89 for the set of 4!

I guess no one knows here but in doing some homework they do fit as ebay has other springs listed as fitment for both Matrix XRS and Vibe Gt

Ill bite for $63 shipped

Yes, they should fit since the XRS and Vibe GT are basically the same cars mechanically. I wonder how well they will do so keep us informed! As you can see below, mine could use a height adjustment too.

Good luck on it!

I will get this done between spring and summer will come back to post my results.

Keep tuned...

"You get what you pay for."

I'd personally be leery of such an important part of your vehicle only costing $64.00. Just my $0.02 though

its being sold on ebay for $64 as a discounted item not that its worth $64.00. I am not worried....if anything I am old school and used to cut springs to lower my cars (that's how it got done back in the days) I have also lowered a car torching the springs again that was back in the days. Never had any incident to talk about by doing it old school. I am sure not worried about a $64 spring made to a specific lower rate and spring rate.

I am sure its made well, way better to any homemade remedy

New lowering Springs for these cars are normally $100.

Any updates on the lowering springs?
The distance lowered and spring rates look really ideal!
