B&G lowering springs
Hey,
I have been searching for a bit today on here and google looking for some results with no luck.
I'm very interested in swapping out my BMR springs for the B&G springs because it isn't low enough for me right now.
Anyone have any experience with them? They are all over tons of websites, but not turning up any results here. If not I may have to go with the sportlines even though I have been told they ride like ****.
Thanks guys

The Eibach sportlines and the prokit definitely ride like ****, man. I've not heard of B&G, but generally the lower they make the car the shittier the ride.
What shocks do you have? A good pair of shocks can probably assist the ride quality if you are concerned about that. If you go too low with the stock shocks, you'll bottom your shocks out a lot regardless of brand.

about another 1/2" which the B&G and the sportlines offer.
I'm surprised more people aren't running the B&G or tried them. They are on about every other F-Body performance website. Maybe it's because they cost more than all the other springs?

After you lower a certain amount you have a hard time getting around places. I hate the Eibachs on my car right now, too dang low lol (and the ride quality stands to be improved as well). I'd trade for one that'd raise me 1/2" or so but I doubt anyone would do that. Plus I'd have to not drive the car for however long it takes, and I've missed her for long enough.
