Perfect Lowering Spring?

[FidyStang]

I am looking for Lowering springs. What brand is a well trusted brand? I don't really go to the track, more for everyday aggressive driving. Opinions?

I love my Eibach pro kit. Great ride quality and with 20" wheels not a problem at all. With my 18s and low profile tires i'd scrape a bit. I was very very surprised at how good the ride quality is. Have a bit of a problem with the camber though and the Eibach camber bolts.

For street driving, I don't think you could go wrong with H&R, Eibach, or Steeda brands. We've worked with H&R and Eibach with good results.

H&R is second to none in quality of lasting and riding nice .

It's up to you man... I love the stance of my car, but riding on the bump stops really does suck fat chodes sometimes... If you wanna look good, it's gonna hurt a little, same goes for chicks and their shoes, right?

I dont have experience with others but I like my stock saleen springs good ride and handles like a dream (compared to my old ride which was a 2500 ram diesel)

Haha thats not saying much. Plus the saleen comes with a few other suspension mods. I still hear they're pretty good springs though. I like Eibach.

Oh come on those diesels are quick and nimble lol but yea I'm sure if it is the combo of the springs and sway bars or bar I cant remember if they also upgrade the rear

FRPP K springs

The K springs provide the drop I would want but when I talked to Sam Strano he recommended the Steeda Ultra-Lite Springs, these springs are definitely worth considering..

How low are you trying to go..

 

[JeremyH]

I have had steeda springs before. Def like the k springs better. I run them with bilstein hd shocks/struts.

 

[FidyStang]

How low are you trying to go..

Not too low, I am sitting on 18s so if i drop it a few inches it wont kill me. I was thinking between 1-2 inches. I want a more agressive stance.

Steeda sport springs give a subtle drop and stiffen up the ride just enough...I like 'em. Consider getting new shocks/struts along with springs.

I did the FRPP K Springs with my stock 18's on 275/40's. I love it. Here's my before/after thread.

You will have to slow down for speed bumps and other things that may center the car out. I scraped on a speed bump at the Shelby plant here in LV, was the first bump I've scraped on so far, and I think it was only because i have the mid-muffler setup from Pypes. The ride is awesome, firm but not rock solid, you only really notice it on dips and bumps. The biggest improvement is overall handling. Fucker sits down for the corners and stays planted. Alot less lean in the turns too.

There's nothing bad to be said about the K springs, IMO.

FRPP, Steeda, Eibach will get the job done
