Megan racing lowering springs..

Ok so I don't want coilovers so I was thinking about getting the Megan racing springs, 2" front 1.75" rear. Does anyone have these that can post up some pics and how is the ride quality? I know switching to any spring or coilover will affect the ride but all must vary. Thanks!

Go with either Swift, GTWORX, or Eibach Pro Kit if you want springs. I have the Eibach Pro Kit and it rides close to stock.

There is a thread on here about the same thing you're asking...had a brave guinea pig that installed the megan's and others quickly followed after they saw all of the pics and good information. From what I remember, there were no complaints other than the fact you get what you pay for. Search for megan springs and I guarantee something will come up.

i'm running the megan springs right now
great looking stance, really aggressive drop but the ride is quite bouncy, not terribly bad for a daily driver though
i'm switching to gtworx, too low for the roads here and i want a better quality ride

photo of mine with the megans:

From: somewhere testing various tires, brakes, and suspensions.
Remember: Struts don't care where they stroke from; they care when they bottom out.

-2 is VERY low and you run a VERY high risk of smashing the valving into the housing.

it took me not even 30 seconds to notice the terrible ride in RRD's car when I got in the driver's seat

hate these springs, but if you want the look - go for it
