hi guys

i've decided to buy some lower springs because it's more affordable for me.

are there any springs out there that lowers the car more in the front and less in the rear?

1. i heard skunk2 is 1.8'' rear, 2.0 '' front? is that correct?
(i'm rolling on my stock ap1 wheels currently, will this drop require rolled fenders?)

2 . any other springs that do the same be a bit less aggressive in the drop? (e.x. 1.3 front and 1 rear?)



greatly appreciate your help
thanks

i think that the rear will drop more than the front on all the lowering spring. but you can get ground control and give the drop the way you like and choose your own spring rate. only thing about ground control is it will work with certain brand of shocks and i dont think you can go back. which mean if you buy it to use with your stock shocks you wont be able to use it with like say koni. anyway it just something i read. dont take my word for it. do some search. it all been there.

on another note, i have friend with swift and it work out great for him. it only a little bit stiffer than stock and the drop is like .7 front and 1 rear .i personally will go with swift or espelir. alot of owner around the bay have espelir i think. hope they will give you some feedback

I think tein springs are a pretty mild drop, around 1" but I can't comment on the if it differs between front and rear.

My skunks dropped my car much lower than I expected. I can't even run -2 camber with stock wheels, highest I could go was -2.8 (in the rear anyways). I'm only running -1 in the front

do you have a picture of your ride?




thanks for the responses guys. i'm still researching for the right springs. lol

you could get ground controls, they are adjustable coilover sleeves without the shock.

yeah , i saw them, but still 3 times more expensive than springs.

they are out of my budget. =[


oh........ just saw some one is selling his ground control in SJ. i want them!

I've got a finger gap and a smidge in the front, and a finger gap in the rear and that's with the camber. It wasn't my intention to go that low, but I guess I'll just have to accept it

ace47

oh... that's really low .
i can't do that low in SF, it will scrape the front end off. lol

I have eibach pro kit springs, and the front is right where i want it but the back end is higher than id like. maybe those would work for ya.
spose to be one inch front and rear. but like i said the rear looks higher than the front.
