    I currently have VOGTLAND springs(non cabrio) which are way to soft for my style of driving so if any one is interested in some kind of trade.....

        I had H&R sport springs cabrio specific (still have them btw) with bilstein sport shocks, then moved on to H&R race springs with the same shocks.
        Sports (all spring pads)-

        Race (no spring pads in front, both in the rear)-


        I really like the race springs. Just as long as I have a tire with a decent sidewall. My replacement tires have a really flexible sidewall compared to my old potenza's....with an actual noticeable difference in body roll, since the stock sidewall is so damn tall.

          I started out with Eibach Pro Kit spings for the cabrio and Bilstein Sports. It felt much better than the stock supension but then I autocrossed the car and my whole world changed. Autocrossing was my "gateway drug".

          I ended up with Ground Control and Koni SA shocks. I'm running 575lb fronts and 700lb rears. As you know, its all about compromise. My car doesn't like bumpy roads or speed bump parking lots but it handles great.

                    I need something to keep the shell rolling so I would take whatever old shocks/springs you have in a trade for my stuff.

                      my car is a D/D so I can send you the original susp. from mine once I acquire your setup???? or depending on the speediness of delivery we're talking about I could leave my car on jackstands @ a friends house for a couple of days.... well worth it to me to be carless for a few days.....
