Does anyone here know anything about the goldline springs for the box? I've known people who have had them on other cars before, and they seemed like them just fine. I was going to run some trd struts/shocks with the goldline springs but i'm not sure......

I don't have them, but I've only heard all good things.

The company is no longer around. But you can still find some of them.

I wanted to run these, but found out that the company is gone. They are excellent springs though.

Goldline springs have always had a very high spring rate. They are not as comfortable as most other brands.

I didn't know that part, David.

I guess it is a good thing I didn't end up with them. :up:

Are TRD's the best thing to go with for comfort?

I would imagine so its probably best on your stock shocks/struts because its not a sever drop..

Eibach is known to produce soft spring rates. I've had a set of Pro-kits and sportlines for my Accord. They rode very smooth. I've also ran on some Neuspeed springs and that was the WORST mistake in my life.

Eibach, H&R, and TEIN are known for softer spring rates.

That is excellent information, Craig & David.

TRD, Eibach, H&R, and TEIN - nice soft rides. :beer:

thanks so now it really depends on what kinda look you want...TRD will give you a slight drop but its noticeable and if you wanna slam it to the ground get the tein s-techs (thats what im doing with my tc), but tein also has the h-techs which arent as low...

i'm running them on my box, on stock struts. i love the lowered stance and theres is only a couple other sets of springs that run lower than goldlines.

you see, i roll on 15" sportmaxs and I want a decent drop, just not slammed, roads in this town are pretty bad. I didnt know that about goldlines going out of buisness. the s-techs really offer more of a drop than I would like, so i've thought of going with h-techs, i hear they have a softer ride, but do they still perform well?
