I am thinking about putting on a set of DMS lowering springs (want to get rid of the 4x4 look). How much do you think this hurts ET's? Is there another route to go.... I would like a combination of drag and handling. Open for suggestions

I've seen cars on Eibach prokits cut 1.6 short times's..

If your a drag racer , I would not do it, they look good lowered but it will make traction harder to come by.

Actually when you lower a car, you would want to use relocation brackets as well so the LCA's will be in the proper position to plant the rear tires. The LCA angle is affected adversely when you lower a car and then don't use relocation brackets to get them back at the right angle.

A prokit with relocation brackets and 1.3's are possible if PERFECTLY set up.

Do you mean 1.3 60fts? And how do you know if they are perfectly set up?

What would you do then?

The lowering isnt so bad it is the spring rate that can kill you. If you have LCA relocation brackets and cut stock springs you could do 1.3 sixties in an A4 and 1.4-1.5 in a M6 with a good track. Everything else needs to be in place too (good TA, TA angle etc etc)

like others said here it has to do with the spring rate. also make sure the LCA are loaded position. i have LGM autocross springs that lowered my front 2" - see sig for pic. i cut low 1.5s

My car is lowered with Eibach Pro's. I simply love the looks of it... .. so I modified my suspension a bit to help out with the weight transfer:



Works pretty darn good, but havent been to the track yet to get 60fts. Soooon, very soon.

I keep hearing that it will ruin traction. When I had the Pro kit on my car, and bolt ons, I cut a best 60' of 1.50 & averaged 1.52. I did have LCA relocation brackets welded on. This was also with ET Streets, not Drags. Aparently it was set up "right". Although I just put the stuff together & hoped for the best.

Thanks for the replys... 1.5's are good enough for me

Fat chance on doing that with drag radials, your gonna need some good stickeys.Been there done that myself lowered my car 1.5 inch with st springs , and relocation brackets, and LCA's and had the stock shocks, what a bad set up , seriously need some shocks to help out,that was 1.9s short times, put the stock springs back in and was cutting 1.70s all day on nittos, Unless your gonna play with the suspension I would leave the stock springs.
