I would hate to waste money on a set of 50 dollar Scan Tech springs only to replace them again next year when I redo the complete suspension. I like the idea of having the capability of carrying a little extra weight, but not at the cost of not having a near OEM ride.
IPD also makes an overload spring for 3 times the cost. I'd Hate to invest that kind of money on a spring only to later replace them. Perhaps I should buy a matched set of 4, although my front springs are still in good shape and I would prefer just to find a set of rear spring that complements the current front springs. Then again I hear that Lesjofors makes a good spring. Perhaps they would be be the best compromise.
Has anyone used these manufactures for springs before?
You can throw a fortune into an old car and not be satisfied, particularly considering the current quality of the aftermarkets as of late.
