Best Place to buy Espelir springs?
I was doing some research, and I thought I found some Espelir springs for $240 shipped, only to find out the company has been shut down... Does anyone else know where to get these springs new for a good price? I'm looking for the ESA056 springs, which give the drop of 2.2" in the front and 2.4" in the rear. I've seen them online for about $430, but that's a little too much for just springs. Thanks.

If you are not prepared to wait, check the classifieds very often. If then, you dont cant find them, just buy the TT struts and springs, close to the same drop with a better ride. Choice is yours. Just giving you some options here.. Those are extremely hard to find...

Thanks FAT HEAD, sending you a PM soon. And I kinda figured they would be hard to find. It's a shame they aren't in the US anymore, but I guess most people run coilovers anyway. Thanks for the info guys!

OP, this is not bad advice... depends on what you want I guess. I'm in the market for new shocks pretty soon here, and i really want the adjustable Tokicos which are around $400. I've been tossing around the idea of selling my espelirs and just buying some Megans, but I feel like the ONLY advantage I would be gaining is the adjustable ride height, which may or may not be worth it. IMHO, Espelir/Tokico are higher quality products than Megan. I'm not exactly sure what I will end up doing, but as of today I think I'm sticking with the Espelirs.

Well, I was going to run the OEM struts on the springs for a while until they blew, and I was reading older forums, and a lot people were saying the got them for around $200 new, but I'm assuming that's when they were more available in the US. I didn't know if anyone still knew where to get them for that price.

Only complaint I could say about the Megans is that the spring rate is not extremely stiff. If you want to tuck tire, they are not the best.
On the lowest dampener setting they are like stock. They are a little bouncy, but not bad in the firmest setting.
It would be really hard to go back to a setup that I couldn't adjust. It just gives you so much freedom to have the ride height and stiffness exactly how you want it.

I ordered myself a set of the ASD's back in mid February and Finally got em at the end of June. Totally worth the wait compared to what I had before. At one point I had forgotten about the order all together til I got a phone call about em lol
