[TR] TR4A springs

If you're looking for comfort, avoid the performance kit. One of the factors that affects ride is spring length. A longer spring has more "travel" in it, thus soaking-up more energy when the car goes over a bump or dip. Also, performance / competition springs are stiffer. The result is a ride that is even more ox-cart like than stock (if that's even possible!).

Is anyone using these springs? Also, there is a big difference in price for front and rear pairs of stock type springs from different vendors. Would greatly appreciate any comments, recommendations, etc. from anyone with experience with new springs. BTW, I'm looking for the best ride, am not competing.
