2005 EX 4cyl, 140 K miles
Are there any stock height springs that are better than OEM?

Problem: The springs have sagged and now the camber is off. I will be installing the adjustable camber kits...and probably the struts...and then have it re-aligned. But the car looks like it is sagging in the back and when there are a couple of people in the back seat it really goes down. Seems like the correct fix is really to replace the springs. I don't want to lower the car.

Question: Is it worth bothering to replace the springs? It doesn't seem like the OEMs were very good if they sagged already. Are there any better replacement springs?

thanks

 

Is kind of strange for the "springs" to give up like that? Unless something with the struts gave out a while back and the car has pretty much be riding on those....

You'll have to do a bit of shopping, compare OEM prices with something from Moog(?) or another aftermarket brand. Also might look and see if anyone offers "loaded rear struts"....let us know how it turns out.

 

I wish I could help ya but I'm all about coilovers. But I would assume that they would last longer than 140k.
Do you have any pics to give us a reference to what you are talking about?

 

Stock springs were fine since 2005..give them a break and replace with stock ones.
You'd be sagging if you carried around 2 or 3,000 lbs for all those years..Unless your going to lower your car..replace with OEM style.
