H&R or whiteline

Post by SILINC3R »

okay heres the deal. i can get whiteline springs that i know will fit perfectly on my ride for under $300($285 ) or i could go with ebay H%R springs for $219 plus $40 for shipping. says they are for AWD which i have front wheel. the problem is that whitleine has the fronts but not the rears and it will take 6 to 8 WEEKS for them to get the rears. i really want the springs before i have to go back to school but may have to wait. at the beginning of the summer i had found the H&Rs and was going to go with them until i had found out about the whitelines.
what should i do?


sorry dont know how to maKE it shorter.

I love my whiteline springs, for the few extra dollars it is well worth the quality and fitment.

buy the H&R now and also order the Whiteline

then when Whiteline shows up install them and be super happy about it

sell H&R for a fraction of what you paid

this way you can have your cake and eat it too



if you want it all it's gonna cost you

you have to sacrifice something, and that choice is yours alone

And think about it, in the end you'll have experienced two different suspension setups (different spring rates, ride heights). So then you'll be able to form a solid opinion on which you prefer.

Spring rate is how many hundreds of pounds of pressure it takes to compress the spring 1" as I recall. Effectively its a rating on how stiff the spring is.
