Question lowered springs ????
Hi just wondering what springs people are using I want to lower my wrx my06 about 30mm to preserve my standard struts and better handling/looks and also get some sway bars.

Im a bit confused have seen mao's packages with king springs I have read on here they are not so good I was bidding on some sti pinks but was flying to work when the auction ended on ebay so i missed them have seen some Prodrive springs or h&r springs.

Im not sure what to buy I have been searching for a while I dont want a rock solid ride but also want some good handling and to do some track days.

Thanks for your advice

Nothing wrong with King Springs.

King Springs are fine, as said above. Nothing wrong with them at all.

I've got king springs in my gc8 and they are fine. Slightly stiff at times but I can't complain, they've done me well so far.
