Post by Mario »

What options do I have when it comes to lowering my 2006 Base Vibe? I've been looking towawrds Tein S-Tech springs, but I haven't seen any springs specific to my car.EDIT: Another Question - I found a set of Matrix (03-06) Tein Springs. Will these work?

Eibach springs that have 2 types,1st 1.2" drop all around2nd 1.8 in front and 2.1 in rearThere is also Skunks that is offering an ajustable drop from 0" to 3".and there's an other one that offers a 1.7" front and 1.6" rear.Tein has 2 types the s type which gives a 2.25 to 2.5 drop while the H type give less than 2"then theres air bags $$$$ good luck on your choice.

Just to give a comparison. I have TEIN as well as alot more people here and I believe they would agree that TEIN is a great spring. Comfy ride, cheap price and easy install for a quality part. Probably the best bang for the buck if you ask me. Just my $0.02
