  • Springs to get rid of Gap, pic inside...

    Please tell me if the Eibach Pro Kit will be sufficient in removing most of the gap in my car. I plan on getting 17x9s later with 275/40/zr17s. I want to have a little gap, but definetely not as high as it is now.

    I will also be purchasing shocks too.

    The pro kits ok..
    It really depends on how low you want it, You may want to go to the track and look at some cars, ask questions..

    I have developed a new sickness that demands lower then the pro kits can get you..

    If you wnat lower you pretty much need coil overs, a HALL shock setup, or somethink the the eibach sport lines.. I recomend the coilovers..

      I believe the pro-kit would fix that nicely.

        I just put Goldline springs on my car last night :D , and i think it looks great! they were the 1.50 drop springs, and they slammed it pretty nicely. my car isn't tucking, and i still have a little bit of gap (enough room too probably put your middle finger through), but i think it looks really nice, i don't have any pics yet... but maybe check those springs out... all just depends on HOW MUCH GAP you want... when i was looking into springs, i also considered the pro-kit, but it just didn't look like it was gonna do what i want for my v6, since it advertises only an inch, and the v8's get an inch and a half... so i decided it would be best not to spend 200 dollars on springs that weren't gonna get what i wanted, and maybe just barely lower it... so thats my advice, shop around a lil' bit and read lots of reviews... cuz i found some people who really don't like some brands like INTRAX and stuff, so i stayed away from that, but it still all depends on how much drop you really want, cuz when you say you still want a lil' gap, that could mean a various amount of sizes... good luck though!

              Goldline springs are made by Goldline, and i have about a 1/2 inch gap on my car right now... they ride really well... they're stiffened up my suspension alittle, but i like it, but it's not too much where when you have to drive it everyday, you're thinking, man this sucks... oh and as for handling... let's just say i basically took a small U turn thing on the highway today at 55 mph and the car didn't even budge :D so yeah that was way cool, ummmm... i got my springs off of ls1.com, a guy was selling them in the forum... where do you live at? you can find them at some shops, and they are online in some websites, but it you find them for over 200, go somewhere else, cuz i know some places that will sell them for like 140... my overall judgment... good springs... better handling... great price! so take my advice for what its worth! let me know if i can be of more assistance

                Looks like im gonna go with the Eibach Pro Kit and some Bilstein HDs. Hopefully I will find a good shop around here to work them in.
