Online Perfomance Auto - King springs set for $260

Postby XTPN » Sat Feb 20, 2016 9:57 am

Hey guys Online Performance Auto are having a 25% off all king springs I believe. They have a set of front king springs for the CJ Lancer for $175, and the same price for the rear. Which works out to be around $260 altogether after deductions. Sounds like a really good deal, should I grab them?

Although I do want to lower my car, I have heard a lot about the debate between springs and coilovers. About how springs or incorrect ones may cause premature wear to the shocks and so. I drive my Lancer about 150ks a week and don't really plan on tracking it. I plan on keeping my car for about 2 or 3 more years. Is a $260 set of springs worth the investment for my current situation/plans for my car?

When where the shocks checked, if its 5 years old you might need new shocks too.

I've had Kings for about 25,000k, pretty happy with them, but I changed out the oil shocks for twin tube gas at the extreme expense of 420 for teh set, I lol at your coilovers, hehe
