New srt4 ( 2004) owner here - current coilovers are horrible - hardly drivabile, will knock your fillings out your teeth. Not looking to autocross or track, I would be happy with stock SRT enineerring, but... these are not avaiable as a package. I can get new Mopar original cartirdges in the rear ( yes I know where there are some) and KYB fronts - strut cartridges, I would still need to purchase springs, and of course these are mismatched .

Considering going with Tein S tech springs, 210 front, 196 rear, which should offer a decent ride.
Does anyone have any experience with these springs on srt4?

I ran Tein sprinfgs on my Subaru 15+ years ago, I had no complaints with their springs, looking for input for the SRT4 specifically.

I can pull this off for < 600, thoughts? Considered the Megan coilovers, but the spring rates are still pretty high ( 448 F / 336 R ).

Thanks in advance ... We are just getting started here, Im sure I will have many more questions

I do not have any experience with the specific parts you are asking about. However, I'd like to note that BC coils (360 F / 240 R) are much less harsh than Megan. They are a bit more pricey though.

Edit: I love the adjustable dampeners and the adjustable camber.

i have the amazon 9k and harsh is an understatement .. but they work well on the track..

i've heard racelands ride like stock..

If you are looking to go with lowering springs the only ones I would recommend are the Mopar stage 1’s. They offer a more performance feel over stock, ride great, and really keep the car flat in corners. The rear ride height is still a little tall but they wont DESTROY a new set of expensive struts like any other spring will. I ran Eibach sport lines on a new set and I don’t drive much. Within 500 miles. TOAST. So for the price of a nice seat of coil overs I went through 2 sets of struts and springs. Live and learn I guess lol everyone’s wallets are built differently hahah.

I wanna get stage 1 mopar springs....but I'm worried about potentially blowing out the original struts that are on there, and I dont think you can get new front struts at all anymore....

I wouldn’t worry about them. Run ‘em. Some dealerships can still get them but it is getting to be slim pickings.

Yeah I just picked up a set of the Mopar springs used a month or so ago, and I had bought a set of new struts from MPX about 1-2 months ago too (they randomly had some new sets in stock again, briefly).

Everything I've read says that the Mopar springs are meant for the stock struts, but I still worry too because these new struts are rare & unobtainium at this point and wouldn't want to blow them out early
