SPRINGS

What are springs? Why buy springs?
Coil springs cushion and absorb the shocks and bumps as the vehicle is driven. Coupled with a shock absorber they makeup the main element of your vehicleĆ¢€™s suspension. When you want to lower your car, you buy new springs that are made to set your car closer to the ground. Anybody who wants to lower his or her car has to replace the factory springs.

Do springs come in sets of 4?
Springs are sold in sets of four; unless otherwise specified on the website.

Are springs adjustable?
Springs are not adjustable; you cannot change the ride height. See our product descriptions to find out the exact drop the springs offer for each listing. If you want an adjustable lowering system, then you should look at coilovers, which are essentially adjustable springs.

How do you install springs?
The factory spring and strut housing need to be removed. Once the factory springs and struts are removed, they can be replaced with your aftermarket springs. A professional shop should install your springs, since they are pressurized and since an alignment will need to be done at the same time the installation is completed.

Which brand is dependable for springs?
Eibach is an industry leader in lowering springs.
