2008 SC 430 proformance springs and shocks
Hi , I was looking at replacing the 18 inch rims and adding 20 inch Forgeauto's . Has everyone had performance springs and shocks fitted to compliment the new rims and tyres ??
I have tried Eibach , Kings and Bilstein with no such luck !!
I would appreciate any advice to give the SC a better ride balance thru cornering etc .
Kind regards ,
Russell C

add Figs Engineering front solid 30mm sway bar and Figs front sway bar links add ISF rear sway bar Figs rear will not work on the 430sc has no bends front is great with links
this will give the car to handle great
I use Bilstein Sport Shock front and rear with Swift Springs spring will lower the car .8" front and .6" rear
the sway bars setup should be the first add on
call Bilstein in Ca talk to Jose about the setup
I use 18" Work 38mm Rims with 19mm spacers. I don't want to run on rims I want tires not rims
20" rim is not the way to go
my EarthX Lithium Battery Weighs 7 lbs that right 7 lbs thats about 40+lbs from the front of the car

Pole Position
I have 20 inch rims and the car rides hard. I often think of switching them back to 18's.

Added Vogtland springs (German made) which have. Little more than 1” drop.
I added adjustable front upper control arms and spc camber kit in the rear to help with the negative camber. They got it to factory spec. It handles great and the ride is not as harsh as the 18 runfarts.
