Did a search and read all the posts about Suspension Technique springs and came across a lot of variances on it.

Some say it will sag and are really soft while others say it is pretty firm and show pics of it where it looks good. Also, the springs are suppose to lower it .5" according to the company but the pics I see seem like they are close to the Eibachs.

Did Suspension Techniques revise their 2002 springs at some point?

Can anyone clarify on the current spring characteristics?

Pics are welcome too.

Thanks.

than stock, but not harsh, and they dropped my car only .5 -.75 inches front and rear - nothing dramatic at all. This is in conjunction with a set of Billstein HDs and 185/60-14 Yokohamas, which I think makes a good combo with the STs. A major improvment in handling over the stock set up but still comfortable for long drives.

I don't have any pics of the car with the STs on my computer here at work. I'll see if I can post some later this evening.

During regular driving they're nice. I personally think that the spring rate is a little soft if you really get on it, say off camber corner under trail braking... Also hard on the throttle out of a corner, they do hook up well, but seems to me I'd like a little more stiffness...

Did drop the car further than I expected. I also added neg camber plates in the front which are very nice to have.
