Confusion over buying lowering springs

[onizuka]

Hello all,

I'm trying to purchase a set of lowering springs online, but as I visit most website, it only indicates that the springs are for 3 DRS h/b.

My question is, would the same spring for 3 drs fit into our Canadian 5drs? I own a 2006 5-drs RS model.

The springs in question are either Tanabe or Tein S Tech.

Thanks in advance for your inputs.

Yes, they will fit. As I've stated with a few others, the websites are US, and will only show models available in the United States. You will rarely find 2006, or 5dr.

Cheers.

Yes, they will work fine on 3- or 5-door LBs.
You should consider getting those springs from an official YW vendor, such as MicroImage: http://www.microimageonline.com/store

lower ride height sold me on them, and im very happy with them, car handles great

[onizuka]

lilred 08, where did you get them from? also how does it handle in our winter?

[lilred08]

i got my springs from jrp. in missisauga they had them on hand, and i was so nervous coming into the winter but lowered with stock wheels i didnt have much of a problem! i cant remember one time getting stuck and thinking to myself why did i lower my car, they have only helped the performance and look of my car. the odd large chunk of ice i would drive around that about it, no major issues.

RicnSov said the same thing!!

[WeeYari]

GTA member Ric n Sov's Vitz RS (yeah, long user name) is on Tein springs as well.

Pretty darn low in my mind, as I've scrapped my nose entering strip plazas on stock springs. Can't imagine being nearly 2 inches lower.

[lilred08]

Never too low:P i wana be lower!!! yahh occasionally you gota doo 1 wheel up at a time, with a car full of people i scrap every speeed bump!! AHH NO FAT CHICKS!!!

It's good to eventually get dampeners to go with the lowered spring rates.
