check out this link and just pick out which springs you like the most. Then let us know which ones you are liking, and I'm sure that some members who have dropped their Vibes will give you advice/input. http://www.neverenoughauto.com...=1532

hotchkis and teins give you about the same drop... i like the teins more cuz they arent as bouncy "to me" as the hotchkis. i had both and would chose the teins over the hotchkis anyday.

When I first put Tein S type on back in 03 I got a 2.5" drop measured from the rocker front and rear.Quote, originally posted by nuvibe Â» Cant even tell that I'v lowered my ride. have you parked next to a stock height vibe? wait till you open your tailgate and hit your head on the tailgate edge.

Mrizzle05 · Post by **Mrizzle05** » Tue Jul 25, 2006 5:09 am

Neverenough is a Tein dealer and has the real ones. I got my new ones from him. I got a set of fakes on Ebay and after 3 months of threatening emails, finally got a full refund including return shipping.

AKLGT · Post by **AKLGT** » Thu Jul 27, 2006 2:34 am

have teins on Mav's vibe and teins on my LGT now. a little harsher than stock, but it's fine to me... as for purchasing through a dealer, make sure they come highly recommended and it's not just some guy that this guy knows... or you could be getting some fake springs.
