What's the point? That I choose not to plug bandwidth with giant pictures of everything? That's just how I am. *shrug*

I need to get on this. These springs wouldn't lower my car, would it?

Yes, they would lower the car. The amount of the drop is close to 1.25" in most instances.

As for handling, they are a substantial improvement over stock springs.

Yes, my springs are lowering springs... They might not lower your car if you already have some sort of spring on there, or stock ones that are cut, or completely hosed out, but I can't know that.

I used to tell folks 1.2" or so from stock, trouble was "stock" varies... a LOT. Especially late LS1 cars, they sit extremely high and we will often see more than a 1.2" drop, but not because the car is slammed, but because it started so freaking high.

As mentioned they should but how much depends.

Some cars came from the factory with a lift kit it seemed and those lowered a fair bit.

Others (like mine) had such saggy springs by the time I put them on that it barely dropped at all lol. Rides and handles 10x better though between the springs and good shocks.

Lol at that. So many cars new have reduced the gap between the fender lip and tire, looking back on the stock f-cars 4x4 stance is funny.

About to take a set of those springs off your hand. My car has the factory SLP level 2 suspension so the drop will probably be negligible if at all. Can't wait to feel the handling difference though matched with the Koni yellows.

Thanks for all the replies. I guess I just need to make the plunge and get these strings plus Bilsteins. I still have the stock DeCarbons on there, and my car rides worse than my sister's '93 Mazda 626
