Rear Coil Spring Replacement
My 92 Lexus ES 300 has some weight transporting problems. My friends when riding in my car make it sag to the ground and bottom out. I know I need new coil springs for the back but I want heavy duty springs (something better than stock). My mechanic said he could get the back two for 520$ for the heavy duty. I trust him but I've had experiences where I usually can find this stuff online for way cheaper. I can't with this part though. If anyone can give me a link to these coil springs I would be very grateful. Thanks!

$520 just for springs, or for the whole job? That price is outrageous if it's just for parts. It's hard to find "heavy duty" springs in the aftermarket. Due to popular demand, 3rd party companies often focus on lowering the ride height, instead of the opposite. What I think your problem could be is completely worn out struts. Have you ever replaced any suspension components on the ES?

I don't know I'm assuming stock. I was looking at these two sets of springs if you don't mind could you take a look and tell me which one you think would be better.
