rustler753 Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Howdy, I've searched for a long time, on tein springs, progress, pinks etc... I never really heard a lot about progress springs for the legacy except for 1 thread where the user briefly said he loved them. They claim a 1.3" drop front and 1" drop rear and front rate: 200 lbs/in --- rear rate: 330 lbs/in. http://www.progressauto.com/products/productID/343 The tein h springs have a great spring rate for a stiffer ride but not quite the drop I'm looking for, but these have a spring stiffness I really was looking for and my ideal drop for an aggressive look but not ridiculous back breaking like the tein s springs. Reasons I was considering the teins or these are for my budget ...Any opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GearOnePerformance Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 i have bilsteins and progress springs, rides great but the springs are noisy...mot likely from the L/F spring (doesnt sit in the rubber seat and is touching the metal part of the mount) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LowFast Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 i have bilsteins and progress springs, rides great but the springs are noisy...mot likely from the L/F spring (doesnt sit in the rubber seat and is touching the metal part of the mount) I have the same issue. Love the way they ride, not a big fan of the noise. Had they just rubber coated the last coil it would alleviate the noise issue. Anyone asked progress about this. If they had a heavy duty thinwalled tube they could provide to slip over the end I would appreciate the noise reduction. I get sort of a intermitend poping type noise, almost like the bind and then release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
htioki Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 anyone has them w/ stock (non-spec B) struts? according to suby wiki, the springs rates are almost the same as stock. pics would be good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowFast Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 FYI, Keep in mind these are progressive, so the intitial spring rate is close to stock but as they compress they get much stiffer than the stockers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
