Re: springs

I have the Eibach Pro Kit on mine. If you do lower the car, get aftermarket struts/shocks. The ride, lowered, will be much more bouncy than stock.

Re: springs

I would prefer Ground Control Coilovers. I got them on mine and the ride is smoother than the factory springs. They're going to cost you but its well worth it. If not ground control, i would still get coilovers. Raise and lower the car as you go...you wont regret it!!

Re: springs

The most that you're going to get from spring is like a 2' drope the most. Depending on the spring, it'll make a difference or it won't. Still, I would get some kind of coil overs.

Re: springs

no, dont get dropzone. before i got ground control..i bought dropzone springs off of ebay. They were bran new. When I took it to the shop to have them put on, the called me back and said that the rear ones werent right.

The mechanic called the company to make sure they were the right model and they were. Basically, the front ones were fine but when the rear coil over was lowered all the way, the rear end was still sticking out. Meaning that he had to cut the rear factory springs to make it work properly. Plus the dropzone coil over arnt that sturdy.

Basically, I was led to believe that dropzone would be descent but they arnt. I still recommend the Ground Control.
