check well your product description...
GF210's info and DF210's are switched.
it says that Grip Feeling springs provide a 1.8' drop in the front and 1.3' in the rear. Those are DF's specs though...
just thought i'd help u notice!

Unfortunately we do not sell directly to the public, however you can find a vendor on the fitfreak forums who carry our products and who can get you very good pricing.

We just posted some products from our Tanabe, SSR, and More-Japan lineup in the Products section of the site. Hopefully it will give you a better idea of the products that we offer.

will the DF210's work as good with stock shocks and struts as well as the GF210's? i've read more about the GF's than the DF's, but i'm looking more into the aggressive stance than performance since my fit is for daily commute. do you know if aftermarket camber will be needed for the DF210's?

if you could PM me the info since i rarely check my posts, that'd be greatly appreciated.

The DF210's will give your Fit a more aggressive stance over the GF210's. You can run OEM shocks with the springs or you can run an aftermarket shock. It is recomended that anytime you change any aspect of the suspension that you get an alignment done. Alot of people will get the camber kit and get the car alligned while others will just rotate their tires more often and be fine. Its really up to you. If you have any other questions please contact me.

Hey there -

I just had some GF210s put on my fit. The shop installed them with the tightly wound end of the coils down - Is this correct?

Thanks!

regarding your springs...the DF's provide a bigger drop than the GF's but their spring rates are lower. does that mean the GF's are a harsher ride even though they're not as low as the DF's?

trying to decide between the 2 since i want to be lower than stock, but retain as much comfort as possible....

TIA!

yes. DFs have a bigger drop but softer ride.
DF = Dress Form
GF = Grip Feeling

Interested in a Medallion Concept G for my 08' Fit. Is the 07' the same as the 08' model? Are the strut bar applications the same as well?
