To help follow members with lowering spring choices, please post a side view with data on your springs.


Thanks

SLP Eibach's (from a 96 SS)
Progressive rate: 285-492 front / 85-191 rear
Measured drop: .25" front / 1" rear

Pros: better handling, evens front/rear fender gap
Cons: front drops very little with only 3.4 weight

For what it's worth, I have a complete springrate database on my website. Check it out.

Intrax springs. Front and rear ground to fender lip measurements are 26.5" front to back using 17x9.5 and 285/40/17s. Ride height is awesome but not too low.

if you like a good ride quality, these are THE springs to get. [img]graemlins/rock.gif[/img]

I wanted a subtle drop. It's the Eibach Pro Kit, with new shocks and struts. I feel every bump, but the handling and cornering is amazing. Plus, it looks nice. You probably wouldn't be able to tell I lowered it, unless I told you. What do you guys think? Not bad, eh?

How do you like the shock / spring combo? Ride quality good?

Ride quality is ok at best, but i haven't adjusted my shocks yet (i might do that when i put the sway bar in tho). I've noticed that it gets quite a bit worse with a second person in the car too.
