Hey guys! I am not new to this site but this is my first post. I have a '03 SI and am looking to put springs on the car. After a lot of research I've decided to go with H&R springs. Anybody know where I can pick these up for cheap? Thanks guys. Anyone from San Antonio? Where'd you get them installed?

Give showstoppers a call. Everyone on the site seems to love them. I havent personally ordered anything from them, but I'm considering the exact same springs for my car. Whichever spring I choose will be ordered from them. www.showstoppersusa.com (http://www.showstoppersusa.com)

I'm from San Antonio. I used to install springs for free, but after doing it so much, I decided I need to start chargine :o so if you want them installed, I can do it for 50, I've helped some people here on ephatch put their springs in, done different kinds of springs on my car like 4 times now :D as for the H&R, www.optauto.com has them for 149 and www.inlinefour.com has them for 145, so it depends on each of the companies shipping prices on who will be the cheapest. I check nopi and importhorizon, but they didn't have them for our car

02SilverSiHB,
If your offering install for $50.00 I'm in. Just let me know when and where you prefer. I'll be ordering the springs soon, maybe from optauto.

Great! I'm gonna order the springs on Wednesday. As soon as they arrive we can do it. Can you e-mail me with your info? I tried to e-mail you but it won't let me here at work for some reason.

My car is starting to look really ugly without a drop on it. Due to my aggressive driving without springs my OEM tires are almost done with 11,000 miles on them.

if your suspension wheels and tires are stock and you're REALLY out of treadlife at 11,000 mi., sounds like you get to cash in on the tire warranty. Honda will give you partial credit towards a new set based on how much longer they SHOULD have lasted... You should look into it.

Ordered H&R springs and Sparco Grips from Chuck @ Showstoppers yesterday! Can't wait to drop that baby.

Sweet, I have the same set-up. Did you get the camber kit too?

No camber kit yet. I'll need it though. I'll probably ride around without the kit for a week or so. Hopefully I won't kill my tires.
