not sure if you're referring to the D2 coilovers but I went with D2 lowering springs for the wheel/tire setup im getting. Better suited for closing the wheel gap than the more conservative Eibach Pro kit.
Handlings good and im forunate to live in areas with not so steep driveways lol

What wheel and tire set up are you going with? Rubbing issues? Any problems? Got pics?

i put on d2 springs but I wish I had a little more tire tuck. Stock tires that came with the car there is no rubbing at all.

I heard somewhere that the D2 & Truhart are the exact same spring. But D2 has been around for awhile now and for the same price might as well go with them. I have them and they ride great I love the way my car handles. ***BUT!!!!!!!!! My pet peeve is when a car sits lower in the rear than the front and my D2's do this and it drives me crazy!!!!

17x9 +40 on 255/40/17... wheels still havent came in yet but i got the set up from this post asking Multaq about his setup. He is running D2 Springs on 18x9 +35 - 255/35/18.
Only fender work he did is the tab mod but no pulling or rolling the fender.

here is the link... page 203 he mentions the d2 springs with more pics.

I used the "will they fit" website to compare his setup to the one i want and it matches with mine being slightly more tucked.
link below.

Also here is the tab mod thread.

So it looks like they both give a 2" drop. Is there any difference or should I save the money and go with the trueharts?

Just comes down to preference on brand. personally, I'd go with D2 as majority people run those (when comparing the two) and have no issues. Love my D2 springs

Awesome enjoy bro!

Did you get rear camber arms as well? You're going to need them because of the big drop or else you'll have alignment problems

Count me in the "these are too low" camp. Same with the Eibach Sportlines which is their more aggressive option.

The adaptive shocks are one of the best things about the Si and running lowering springs that remove almost 2" of suspension travel is hamstringing the shocks' ability to do their job.

Unless all you care about is going as low as possible, there are better options for getting some lowering while maintaining suspension travel. Eibach Pro-Kit, Tein S.Tech, Whiteline and Swift Spec-R are all more reasonable amounts of lowering.
