... without spending thousands of dollars ?
I'm not tracking the 911, it's a daily driver that I share with my wife (and she's not a racer) but I come to hate this setup in the front. I've been looking for some European springs for a while but couldn't find them. Maybe I should import some?
Any advice welcome![Smilie](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

I put Eibach or H&R lowering springs on the stock shocks... it is not advised as it "can" leave the car running the shocks in a range they are not designed for and "can" lead to rebound and bouncy driving...
My alignment guy was very skeptical and after all was done he said, hey, that looks like it worked pretty well...and then I loved the car and thought it handled WAY better and looked WWWAAAAYYYY better
some might disagree but I am not mario andretti, just a regular joe with as much track time as I can afford (which aint much)
try to search the H&R's seem popular and only a few hundred bucks IIRC - sometimes see them for less in FS and online

Yeah I thought of that but don't feel comfortable. Isn't it bouncing ? I'd like to have springs with same rate than OEM and at least same range (H&R, Eibach are stiffer on shorter range, which require tougher shocks). This is why I though Euro springs would be ideal. Maybe I will end buying a set of these next time I go to Europe - which is soon. But is that THE solution to go with ?
