I want to see if I can get a good deal on springs locally, save on shipping fees probably. Where can I go, I know there is ASAA but do I have other options? they are skunk2 springs and i know advance auto parts doesnt carry them in their catalog..

what kind of car are you trying to get springs for?? I would advice online places better, dont know many Houston shops that do a fair price.. and why cheap out on skunk2s? you want good ride, get some Tein S..

Really? I hear they handle great and that the ride isnt that bad? Do you speak from a different car, or a general claim?

i never had a problem with my old skunk2 sleeves, but s techs are more comfortable for daily driving and they're pretty cheap now

The drop on those s techs is very minimal. Skunk2 has some "drag" springs, or they had, that hgave the car a much nicer drop. I never had a problem with my Skunk 2 but I had the full coilover kit not just springs.
