Spring and Strut Advice
Hey all,
I am looking to upgrade struts and springs in my daily CD5. I have rounded it down to three combos and would appreciate feedback. My goal is significantly better handling over worn stock components while maintaining ride comfort. I want to do this economically but do it right the first time.
Option 1: Tein H Tech with Koni STR.Ts
I've heard they have a great ride and the stance is what I'm looking for.
Option 2: Neuspeed Sofsports with Koni STR.Ts
Not much drop but a slightly firmer spring.
Option 3: Neuspeed Sofsports with KYB GR-2
most economical, but I'm worried about too much bounce, even with the mild (almost unnoticible) drop.
Also, does anyone know how the Sofsports compare to H&R OE Sports. I know they have the same drop, but are the Neuspeeds a little more firm?
Thanks!

don't use GR2's if you plan on ANY type of drop. They are very bouncy and blow out quick with being lowered. I'm a coilover guy so I can't help you out much more than this. But don't use GR2's they are ORM replacement ONLY
