Intrax springs

Post by thebonestockkid »

I was just wondering how good these springs actually are (durability, stiffness etc.) If they are too soft, what kinda of shocks should i get to make the ride a little harder so the car doesnt bottom out? Im concerned because im gonna have a body kit on there and its a 1.75" drop and well its gonna be pretty low and i dont really want to have the body kit ripped apart :S any suggestions? thanks in advance<P><BR>frank

Hi Frank,<P>We had Intrax springs on our '94 and they were nice. Made the ride stiffer so you shouldn't need new struts, unless they're bagged. Worked well with 205-40-16's...<P>Good luck!<P>Tim & Stef ('96 Chaste White GS)

i also had them on a 94. i liked the ride quality a lot, but it didn't drop it enough for me. people still asked me if it was lowered yet. now i have weapon-r coilovers, which was the worst thing i've done to anything i've ever owned. i'm babbling...<P>dave

If you get stiffer springs (which lowering springs should be), then higher damping struts are strongly suggested.<P>If you don't get struts with higher coefficients, your ride will be bouncy, and you'll probably blow a strut.

So intrax springs don't really drop 1.75" like they say?
