Springs

[sires5125]

Hey' I dont know much about lowering springs and im not to sure what to go with. I been looking at the eibach pro-kit which seems to sit nice with 19s or 18s but what kind of ride do they offer? An is there any other springs out there that would work better? Also should i change my shocks at the same time if so is there a combo out there that would work for a 99 maro?

You should do a search. This topic is discussed very often. Almost everyone will tell you to do springs and shocks at the same time, it will save you the hassle of having to swap out everything twice, plus the ride quality with just springs won't be that great.

uuhh I have eibach pro kit. I can go around corners much faster than before. I wouldn't personally do the sportline kit 2-2.5" drop cuz you will have to buy a chamber kit (or buy tires very often). pro kit is only 1-1.5 inch and chamber is fine. I love them but be warned the plastic air scoop under the car will scrape, sound bad but actualy isn't. And watch out for curbs...

Ok i been reading alot of diff things. But it seems like the bilstien shocks and eibach springs are the way to go so thats what im going with.
prokit-236.00
shocks-325.00
not bad prices ebay...and shipping was free

I'm looking at the pro-kit also, the smaller drop is almost perfect for all driving, gives you a little drop for better control, without making it HARD to drive. And ya the camber kit and tire issue with dropping it 2" could be really bad. Personally I will never buy springs other then Eibach unless its drag springs, but that because I have owned many sets in the past. I'll tell you one thing, I don't think you will be disapointed, but if you want a smooth cadilac ride, its not a good option, but I'm guessing you wouldn't be driving a camaro if you wanted that anyways...


Let me know what you got, and what you think..

How do those work, I was debating on the same comparrison..

sweet, see the other thread. The AGX are adjustable... I've heard bilstiens are good too but no experience myself

[97burnout]

you just turn this nob and it adjusts... can be adjusted wihtout taking the wheel off but you would have to get on the ground..
