I want to lower the car since the back sway starts to kill me... I want something cheap and realianble. I think 2.0 inches is ok to lower since the car is a tall 8.2 stock of the ground. I saw some sportlins for around 89 bucks that will do that. What you guys think of those?

$89 for Eibach Sportlines is a smoking deal. I used to have those on the Matrix but they weren't stiff enough for me so I switched to Progress for $130. The Sportlines are now on my Corolla and perform adequately for spirited driving. The sportlines actually sit SLIGHTLY lower than the Progress springs like 1/4 inch or so.

Tein S-Tech are also excellent.

Those sportlines are a great deal at $89. I have the Tein S-techs which I'm happy with. They cost me around $120 shipped off of ebay a couple years ago. Either one would be a good choice. The S-techs give about .5-.75" more drop I'm pretty sure.

I have the Tein-S that I picked off of someone at Matrixowners (I think) for $75 and I love them with my Hotchkis front and rear sways.

I have Tein H-techs, which are a little more than the S-Techs, but won't give you the drop you're looking for. Go with the S-Techs; you can find real good deals on eBay.

what is the difference between the s and h?

Celtic_Curse · Post by **Celtic_Curse** » Tue Jan 03, 2006 11:58 am

S type= performance (lower drop).H type= balance of performance and comfort (not the same drop amount).I use H type.

How much of a drop did you see with the H-techs? I'm not sure if I want to drop 2"+. I want to get rid of some of the gap, but dont want to feel like my (removed) is dragging the ground. Thanks in advance.
