i am lowered 1 inch in back, 3/4 in in front and with lt headers the car will rub the exhaust on the tall speed bumps. like i said look over strano's site, he has some very good 1.2 in lowering springs that dont sagg over time like the others. most of the 2 in lowering springs will sagg and go even lower over time, riding on the bump stops much of the time. i have all spohns suspension mods. look in my sig.

yeah i was thinking all spohn or i saw eibach has a couple kits. i saw stranoparts has that same eibach pro kit, lowers it like 1.3". thats basically the height im looking to lower. i eventually want to get lt's and we have some pretty bad roads so i want it to look and handle right but i dont want to damage anything.

suspension mods in my sig. UMI an awesome company to deal with and shipped to me in UK in only 3 days . LCA, panhard and strut brace really stiffen the car up.
Got some KYB AGX adjustanble shocks, ok so they are bound/rebound on the same dial but are much cheaper than Konis. Really depends what you want and how much money you have.
I got the eibach pro kit but as craby said they sag in the rear. Some like this look but with positive offset 9J 18" BMW alloys the tires were scrubbing. I swapped them out at the rear from some springs from a 97 Z28, they were lower than my stock 99 Z28 springs by an inch so maybe LE1? Either way the car rides much better with these in rear and eibachs in front.
MelloYello, I've been thinking about putting my stock spring in the rear to lift it another inch and get some big rubber on the rims.
