Default Which lowering springs

I am thinking about buying some Lowering Springs and i was wondering which would be the best.


Ive been looking att he Eibach pro Kit but it says it does not fit convertibles.

But the hotchkis (sp?) They fit convertibles but only ower it an inch.

So which springs would give it about 1.5 inch drop and fit a convertible

i had suspension tech springs on my old 02 trans am and it dropped it around 1.5-2.0, but unless you get the sport drop suspension you are going to have a VERY bumpy ride, they dont add any stability so you feel every bump and crack in the road.

This may help. Not only pictures but 5 pages of opinions/questions:

So what Im wondering is.

Does it really matter what springs I can get if my camaro is a convertible?

Its a 1998 Z28 Convertible.

Or Do i have to get certain springs if its a convertible?

According to Eibach's site, only sportlines don't fit convertibles. I can't give you advice on convertibles suspension because I am not sure what makes them different. There seem to be some good threads about this in the vert section.

Here's one.
