Stock Shocks... What Springs?

Hi All,

Not sure if this has been answered.

I want to lower my 8 approximately 1.5" front and 1" rear no more than that.

I don't plan to change my shocks, what would be the best springs to go with stock shocks?

I'm hear good things about RB springs & the MS springs but that's with KONI shocks.

I don't track my car.
I don't want to go backwards in handling either once I install new SPRINGS. Comfort is another factor, close to stock would be good.

So any good recommendation on SPRINGS with STOCK SHOCKS

hmmm, did you even look at the different style of shocks, they all tell you how far they drop the car.

So umm either search, go to a parts website or you could even use ebay and type in rx8 springs...too easy

I think you missed the question, I didnt ask how far the springs would drop the car... I asked for ADVICE on what would be a CHOICE of springs with STOCK SHOCKS. I wasn't even looking at a "...style of shocks..."
