B&G or Dobi

Postby Emperor » Sat Feb 18, 2006 8:38 pm

I've bought new wheels for my R34 and I wanted opinions on springs.
I wana lower it and also stiffen it up. I've heard good and bad things about Dobi and all good about B&G
so anyone here using either springs, can you give me your opinion?

B&G's are fine, we have them in the 86 and a mate has them in his aw11. They have good rates as far as making the car handle goes. It's pretty different for each car as to how stiff it gets.

put h/d Dobi's in the Cwhore wagon, and done about 15-20km before they were as bad as the original 260km actory ones.

Got dobi's in the Caldina - no complaints, and a massive improvement over factory. I've not been in a caldina with anything else to be able to compare.
