i went with prokit and it was not enough drop for me... im going coilovers now but if i was to do springs again i would def go GF210s...
and no im not one of those guys that has to be slammed and scrapping everywhere... but theres is def a decent size gap between my tire and fender.. im running 19s with 285/35 in the rear...

I had GF210's on my car as well. Ran on stock shocks for a month or 2 and handling was horrible. Huge amount of bounce in the rear over bumps. I swapped to the Tokico HP Blues and thought the handling was great, a little stiffer than stock.

This thread is very helpful.
From what I've seen, I think I will get Eibach Pro kit.
I want to read more about ride quality on those, but I think I've made my choice. Still don't believe in the sportlines, because of what I've read about ride quality. So I think I have my decision

Good Thread, I am also stuck between the 2 Springs.
So far I am leaning towards the GF210 because of the lower drop but I have one question they may change my decision.
Could I use the Prokit with out a camber and toe kit since the drop is less?
How many of you guys running the Prokit were able to get your alignment close to factory specs?
I need a drop bad,

Does anyone have gf210 with D-spec. Wanted to know the ride quality of this set up. I have heard mixed reviews mostly. I have an 03 with the unrevised suspension, this must be an upgrade?

How in the HECK can anyone say the tanabe gf210's are good?
are you guys referring to looks ONLY!!!!!
i had these springs on for a week and they are HORRIBLE....TOO SOFT!!!!i felt like i was floating on the freeway and the handling was so sloppy i hated it. took them off one week after putting them on.....worse than stock by far....
just don't see how you guy can stand it just going for looks and ruining the handling of your car......not worth it trying to look cool until you hit a dip on the freeway and the other guy is laughing cause you are going all over the place!
AND I HAD INSTALLED THEM WITH BRAND NEW BLUES!!!!!!!!!!!!
they need to call them the HF210's HF=Horrible Feeling!
