Sprint Lowering Springs; 1.5 front, 1.5 rear

Hi, has anyone used Sprint Lowering Springs on their 300C yet? The reason I ask is on my 2000 Grand Prix I have used both Eibach and Sprint. The Sprint kit was a lower stiffer progressive rate spring while the Eibach was a same length spring just much softer spring. Long story short the Eibach made my car handle like absolute crap and the Sprint springs are unbelieveable in the ride quality and handling. I see that a lot of people are going with the Eibach. I can't bring myself to buy another set of Eibach springs after I seen the engineering that went into the Grand Prix springs. Any thoughts????

I think I will be the first one on the forum. I will spend $250 now on the springs. I will take before and after pics and report how the car handles. If they turn out to be no good which I highly doubt because I had such good results from my GP then I will go with the KW coilover setup.

Don't waste your time and money

on those Sprint springs with stock 300c shocks. You will hate the ride. They look nice enough, but they will cause your car to bounce and not handle very well. Depending on tires, you may need fenders up front rolled just to deal with the soft shocks and bounce without rubbing top of fender. I just removed a set of Sprint springs and put KWV1 Coilovers on. Night and day difference. The KWs are an exponentially better lowering solution with respect to handling.

I used the Sprints on Stock shocks for about 3 months, it was fine. My suggestion though, save your money and go with a higher end set and sway bars...
