WOW! That's like $450US. Do they actually get people to pay that price?

Yeah, it's one of the bigger shops around and they had this huge booth at a carshow and hence a lot of people go there for the name. Maybe their work is a little better, but I honestly don't think there is going to be a big difference when it comes to buying springs.

I e-mailed them about it. $190 is a killer price, but I want to factor in shipping first. I might be able to locally get a set of Eibachs for $400 CDN not installed, which although is more expensive the Vogtlands, if it's only $20-30 more, I'd probably go with the local option since it's less of a hassle.

For ride height, you can get an idea from this link. As for spring rate, I don't know for sure, because I haven't been in a coupe with H&R to compare. Based on my rides in various other cars, I would guess the spring rate somewhere between the H&R and Eibach
