Thumbs up FS: COBB Tuning Sport Springs for the MS3

SOLD







I had these installed on my car for only a few months and ~ 3000 miles. They worked great, the Speed3 cornered like a champ. With my daily commute,though, they just weren't for me.

Cobb's description:

Quote:
Direct replacement for the factory springs, and designed to work with the factory struts, the COBB Sports Springs reduce the ride height by 1.0" Front and 1.0" Rear. The result is an aggressive stance that will reward you with little "squat" while under hard acceleration, eliminating any front wheel hop you might experience with the OEM suspension. The springs are powdercoated COBB Blue in a unique process for protection against the elements.
Don't expect a huge drop with these springs. COBB claims a 1" drop front and rear. But on my car they only measurably dropped the front, but enough such that the front and rear had an even wheelgap--which looked great. The performance was definitely there... less body roll in the turns, less pitching front to back under acceleration and vice-versa under braking. But if you want to look "dropped" or "dumped" or "slammed", look elsewhere.

They are in perfect working order, but with some minor cosmetic damage. Some of the powdercoat scuffed off in a few places where the springs met the upper/lower mounts. The pic above shows the worst example. More pics available by request. BTW those black spots on the upper coils wipe right off.

Asking $200 shipped. Feel free to make a reasonable offer.

I'll buy them, I live in Hawaii though. Should be kinda cheap shipping if you use a Priority Mail Flat Rate box. I believe if its under 70 lbs & fits, it'll ship for cheap. About 10 bucks if you use the medium size box, my zip code is 96816. You can use the usps site to calculate shipping, I don't know your zip code. Just let me know how to pay you, I was just about to buy some Cobb springs today, be cheaper buying yours & help you out. Get back to me ok.
