Best springs for stock struts?
Was originally looking to get the Tein S-tech lowering springs. But I wanted to hear what you guys thought first. I've been driving the S2000 for almost a year and a half and I'm finally understanding what I like and feel most comfortable.
I want to keep the stock struts for awhile and look for adjustable springs that will lower my ride at least .25mm to .50mm. I want it to be as smooth as possible and also to have almost stock height. Recommendations are always welcome.
Thanks

If you don't want the ride to change and you want the ride height to be lower by 1/4 of a single millimeter, may I suggest drinking a glass of water prior to getting in the car?

S2000s don't come with struts, it's a trick question.
I don't think you'll find lowering springs that keep the car that high, I don't know of any. One option would be to buy a set of universal springs based on measurements. For your height goals you'd want ~9.5" long springs and I think the diameters are around 90mm and you want your rates to be around 325-350 lbs/in depending on your model year. You can find all the measurements here http://www.mccanless.net/Characteriz...rings_rev1.pdf

I want to do the same thing. Check out this website a member recommended to me. http://www.ground-control-store.com/...p/II=526/CA=64
It's Ground control and they have spring kits for stock shocks. I haven't purchased it yet but looking into it.
