Quick question on some springs?

I have searched and read all their is to read but those threads were atleast 2 years old or older. So i was wondering if anyone has or had the Vogtland springs for the Cougar and if they are any good? If these arent that good i will probably end up getting some Eibach springs but i think i will like a 1.6 inch drop better.

Re: Quick question on some springs?

honestly good luck finding eibachs unless u find a used set. they stopped making those kits a couple years ago and virtually all the kits are sold.

Re: Quick question on some springs?

i think ill end up getting the vogtland springs if they are still available since i like the fact its 1.6 all around but if its hard to find eibach springs it will probably be hard to find others as well.

No other springs for the most part are fairly easy to find, eibachs are hard to find cause tehy dont make them anymore.
