Need some help with lowering springs

[AF1JZ]

So, I've been searching like crazy and have PM'd some of you folks about what spring/struts you guys have. Here my predicament...I'm looking for some lowering springs to mostly get rid of the wheel gap like Intrax. It's going to be a DD and the car that I take road trips on. I'm not looking for performance, just looks. I want a smooth ride. I'd buy some Tein coilovers like I have on my accord, but can't afford those at the time.

I've looked at the threads with pics. But, my server block all the imageshack type sites so all I see are lil red X's. So, if anyone would please post what you have and a pic attached through SM would be greatly appreciated. Also, what you would suggest I get. Thanks in advanced.

No pics but I am sure you will get people that will.

Eibach and koni is a nice combo. Gives a nice ride and not too low.

Oh, forgot to say. I already bought some KYB GR-2's. I was looking at some of the few pics that I was able to see and the eibach's look just a little to high for what I'm looking for.

Next choice would be H&R. Again no pics, but give it time and someone will chime in.

Thanks Duane. I was thinking the H&R's as well. Just wondering how they rode.

As I remember, they rode great as a friend had them in his Supra. They have a nice stance to them as well I will go and see if I can find a pic.

On thing to remember is Eibach's are progressive rate springs. Meaning the more they are compressed, the harder they get. So for ride comfort, they are going to be very hard to beat.

If I remember correctly, the only MKIII Supra Spring that H&R makes is what they consider a "race spring" and is going to be far too firm for what you are looking for.

The only way you are going to get a soft ride that is that low would be something like a Tein strut that has independent adjustments for spring rate and ride height.

Yea, I've been considering that. I had some eibach sportlines on my rsx-s and I loved them. Not as much as the Tein Coilovers I have on my accord. That's a sweet feeling ride.

I would describe the Bilstein/ST setup that I had on my Supra stiff, yet forgiving.

I'm definitely looking forward to using this setup on a future Supra.

Unfortunately due to fundage, I could only afford the KYB's. The 1jz swap set me back quite a bit.

how about aerospeed springs....I' got them on my car and they're good. Good price too.. not too soft not too stiff....

Do you think that you could attach a pic? Thanks

and if you go to the gallery in the general section just search for "my 87 turbo" There a couple pics of how it look on my car there.

All I can see are red X's.

When I click the link I get a blank page with this image on it:

I think 87SS was just showing what the springs looked like. I was hoping to see a pic of what the supra looked like with the springs installed.

I have B&G lowering springs I like them and they are lower than the eibachs if your looking to go lower than the eibachs

 

[Sawbladz]

I have the H&R's paired with Tokico's. I don't find them too stiff and I use it as my daily driver in the summer. The only problem is they are too low for the occasional speed bump (we have some big ass speed bumps at my school). I also think they would ride even better with a better set of dampers.
