Intrax vs. ST

[Alero2k4]

This isn't a 'which is better' thread. This is an are the Intrax for $60 dollars more? Basically, I just want something a little more stiff than the stockers. I am fairly sure the intrax are better overall...but here is the situation. I sold my burned down CR500 for 175. This gives me exactly what I need for the STs (within 10 cents). I would have to wait a little longer to get the Intrax, but are they worth the wait and cash over ST? Thanks for any help!:cool:

no they arent

[jabartram]

i think they are? intrax has been around for a long time, and have a very good reputation.
i have run and worked the crap out of my intrax and am very happy with them.

i dont know much about st though.

I can vouch for Intrax also...I have beat on mine for awhile and the are still going at it fine! They also create a very even drop (1.75") with not too harsh of a ride.

...but I do not have any experience with ST's though.

i've had ST's for 2.5 years now, and i couldn't be happier with them...best look, stiffer then stock, but not so stiff to rattle your teeth loose...and for the money, you cant go wrong

agreed, i just got my st not to long ago, really happy with the ride, handles a lot better then stock! great choice for your dollar

Does it sit even even though you have the Eco?

[ptrudel]

the rear is a bit lower no matter which engine you've got...i know my 2.4 is a bit higher in front, but its barely noticeable...

[cruisinalero]

same...st your rear will sit a bit lower...
i havent had a problem with them...

[projectalero]

can somebody tell me what ST is? i know what intrax is, but i have no clue what ST means. somebody please explain or post a link to both sets of springs if possible. thanks

[jackal2000]

spring tech which is the same as sprint springs

[steve-o]

my ST actually dropped my car around 3 inches, and the back is almost at wheel tuck because of how heavy my system is, if you want a lower ride without going to coilovers i would say get ST

Thank you all for your help...too bad there is no way to evenly drop and Ecotec...:( I guess that that look is still better than the 4x4 look I have going on though, thanks again everyone, ST it is.:coolio:
