Lowering Springs

Re: Lowering Springs
I would suggest the Kenny Brown springs. They will lower the car about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2. they are a triple rate spring that is very smooth on the highway and really tightens up and is a very good spring when pushing the car at the track.

I put the eibach progressive rates and left the stock decarbon shocks on my 99 SS for now and it looks killer and rides as good as before. Made the mistake of installing specific rates on another car once. KIDNEY KILLERS!

I put Hotchkis on mine and they drop it more than the 1" they said it would and with SLP LT's it was to low so I put the stock ones back on with the Bilstein shocks.

I really liked LG/Bilstien HD combo. BUT, I took off the LG's because I couldn't stand the scrapping on my TTS headers. Choice between the Lt's and lowered stance, I chose the headers.

Re: Lowering Springs
I've got Eibach Sportlines on my car - really low. Handles great, look awesome, but also bottoms out on moderatly rough roads, and ground clearence can be a problem if you're not carefull. I really do like them, but I think I'd go with the Pro-Kit if I were doing it again.

Re: Lowering Springs
What does the Pro-Kit consist of? Where can I get some info on Eibach springs. I am thinking of lowering my car also. BTW I have a 2000SS if that matters.
