suspension

i was wondering what i would be looking at price wise to get my wheels pivoted if thats what it would be called...pretty much what im trying to say is i want my wheels to have this effect..... / \

Why? So you can have the same problems i am having with high speed vibrations.?...The camber on our cars will no go that extreme anyway...

not an extreme angle...just enough to notice it and help out with steering...cuz stock cavs have alot of curb weight feel to them when you take a turn

Omg yes, The cavaliers always feel like their going to lose grip and spin out no matter what coner your going around

Not when your on an aftermarket suspension and 7.5" wide wheels... :thumbsup:.. My car hugs the road like a dendraphiliac is to trees. :lol2:

well ive got some 215\45\R17's on with motegi FF5 rims and it still kinda tilts...im not a drag racer...i graduated from a race school so i have a habit and hobby of putting cars to the test...and now that i have my own i want it to be fully capable of handling any turn i put it in...thats the basis of my inquiry

Stock suspension < Properly designed aftermarket suspension

Me ( Eibach Pro-kit progressive lowering springs and KYB AGX adjustable dampening struts) > you (Stock McPherson struts on OEM springs)

Oh and i think you have the wrong tire sizes for your rims aswell. What is your original tire size?

well i know with my 18" rims and lowered 1.7 all around. i hug corners pretty damn well i also have strut bar and tower bar... rear sway bar upgraded

Bounce off a couple curbs and your wheels will start to look like that.

Not approved by CRJ... ^^^

haha...oh well...guess ill be getting that affect sooner then later cuz my suspension is going on my car anyways....so what brand should i get thats cheap and quality ?

Nothing is really cheap if you want to do it right. For a quality one, your lookin at 600-800 bucks. Read the suspension faq too.

Yeah, I just bought the Eibach Pro-kit and the KYB AGX struts yesterday. They should be coming in 3 - 5 days. I paid about $625.00 total.

I wonder how much it would be to put in? unless I could do it myself...

shit all i would have to worry about is getting the materials...i can do the jobs myself lol..just do the job yourself...its simple and its saving money

Don't post false statments like that asshat. If your were smart enough to know you need an alignment after lowering a car, maybe you wouldn't keep burning through tires soo damn fast. You should wait 1-2 weeks before gettin an alignment so the spring can settle, then get your alignment. You'll love that combo.
:biggrin:

invest 35 buck into a strut spring compresser.... and u can do the job in about 3-4 hours... air tools... in half the time. i know i did all 4 of mine in about 2 hours i have the right tools.

I have a set of spring compressors/clamps I'm planning on using for the front someday, maybe an inch lower at the most, to match the rear.

Are they worth installing? Do you think your stock struts will take the small drop? I see in your sig it looks a little lower than stock, is that all you've done to lower it?

You don't need a spring compressor... :wink:.. when i just put my prokit and agx in, i didn't use one. It dosn't take a rocket scienctist to figure out a way around one. I couldn't get ahold of one this time, and i wasn't going to wait to get it.. seeing this is the 4-5 th time i've played with my suspension.

So what are all of the tools that I would need?

Jack, Jack stands, spring compressor(maybe), air tools(maybe)? anything else other then the products?

lol... 2 jack stands, 1 jack, impact gun, wratcheting socket( for the inner rear strut mount nut which is a pain in the ass without one) metric deep well sockets for impact gun, regular socket with long extension and i think its a 10mm bolt that comes out from the inner wheel wells. Hell i don't remember. LOL... do both rears at once and the fronts one at a time. If you want to know how to do it without a spring compressor let me know.

alright sounds good, I just got my suspension stuff the other day, but It is kind of cold and rainy out right now, so i'll talk to you when I need the info
