Default BMR Springs Before And After Pics.








I am really happy with these springs. I love the stance, and they don't ride too harsh.

1)How much do these springs lower the car?
2)What is a good shock to run with them?

I didn't measure before and after, but it looks to be about 1" to 1.25" lower.

I still have the stock panhard bar.

I did borrow the Metco lca's and relocation brackets that were on my Z28.

I'm still running the stock DeCarbon shocks.

how much of a difference does the LCA relocation brackets make with these springs?

I have BMR springs on my car too! They are great, low but not too low and still ride good.

The lower control arm relocation brackets are always going to help in a drag racing application. If handling is more of what you are looking for as long as the lower control arms are parrallel with the ground you are good.

On a side note have the relocation brackets both weld-on and bolt-on sale. Here is a link to the sales page-

I would not recommend doing the "heater hose mod" with these springs. I think the rake is perfect with the isolators still in place imo.
