Finally got the Apex springs installed in the g/fs Optra5! The ride is actually quite amazing. I am used to the ride in my car which is very harsh from the Koni yellows and linear wound springs. But the Apex springs feel more like a sport option from the factory than aftermarket. Can't wait to get rims for it, thinking of going +2, maybe +3 if I can find a good deal.

I will try to get pics up in the next day or so.

A UK site lists them at 115#s so about 230 USD. Most tuner shops should be able to order them for you.

The Apex springs + KYB gas shocks & struts made a really big and wonderful imporvement to my Lanos.
I can now take the curve around the pond by the cow field (LOL) at over 70mph where previously the car would only take it at 60mph and most cars have a hard time going around it at 55mph; many cars slow down to 40!

** I do not reccomend speeding on dangerous curves, but it really is a lot of fun!!!

Again - Tom, thanks for the springs & shocks!!
