    Spring rate is outstanding. The car wallowing is significantly reduced compared to the stock springs when driving on uneven road. I can tell this has significantly improved because previously on the stock springs, the light cut-off from my projector headlamps would seem to bounce up and down when running on uneven road (I am not sure if this is noticeable for the stock halogen HLs). I now have minimal movement in my light cutoff using the H&R springs. I don't have any problems with the current absorber. I just find the stock springs too soft = jerky steering wheel on high speed and bumps, body roll on cornering. I now have better handling in spirited highway drives, and no more rolling during cornering and high speed curves/turns.

    Thank you! I'll add it to the list.

    Actually, there are two UR distributors in the US and I've contacted both of them. They're both willing to order parts for us. You just have to wait a bit from them to come from overseas.

    Actually, one of the distributors was looking to make a deal on some UR products in trade for reviews and pictures. Check that out here:

    Can someone help me which more stiff and sport

    Eibach : Axle load: FA: 730 kg, rear: 670 kg
    and H&R : Axle load: FA: 730 kg, rear:700 kg
    ebay speed daddy : http://www.ebay.com/itm/400606664006...S:1123&vxp=mtr Spring Rate: Front - 175 lbs/in, and Rear - 205 lbs/in

    i need to choose the one that good as my current tein lower spring will touch the rear fender when its fully load up by big size people.

    how to differentiate spring rate as some of the info on the website, rate term quite different.

    You would have to see how much travel there is in the Eibach and H&R springs to accurately compare them.

    This one came from email discussion with Silvers export manager:

    Silvers NeoMax Suspension Fully Adjustable
    Part # NM121
    Spring Rate: Front = 4.5Kg / Rear = 3.2Kg
    Price: RM2650(Malaysia)/35000PHP(Philippines)
    http://www.silvers.tw/product_suspension.html

    To compare from Tein's Street Basis Spring Rates of Front = 3.0Kg / Rear = 2.1 Kg the Silvers seems to be pretty stiff.
    Will be getting this by February during a visit in Malaysia.
