You have 3 choices son:
-Hotchkis
-Pro Kit with Bilstiens
-G2 springs
Its all about how much you want to pay.

The pictures you guys post for me will greatly influence my decision!!! As far as how I want the car to look, I'd prefer a little raked look, (Hotckis springs) but I don't want the springs to not lower the car enough.

this is how the car sits now...




Please help me slam my car!! (C'mon just post ONE pic for me!!!)
Hey man I don't mean to change the subject, but by any chance do you work out at the gym on 1960 and Jones? I just noticed you were in NW Houston and I swear I have seen that car in the parking lot. Very nice car by the way.

I say by reading your username- If your going to go for the Slammed look- G2 Supersprings would be the best ones to get i believe they are a 1.5-1.75" drop and they are superior performer to Pro-Kit. Near identical drop however G2 doesn't let the rear sag. I dont know much about this-but i heard Ground Control is a great setup but $$.

If you want to drop it just to get it off 4x4 mode and still perform get yourself BMR-thats what I'm going for I've noticed a significant difference in handling between that and stock. Not too much of a drop-keeps the raked stance-i give it a big thumbs up

Yep I cant go over most speedbumps, I either have to find a way around or grit teeth and feel the pain as I go over it!
Thing is Id like to lower it but theres no way I can......
I guess If it wasnt my daily it wouldnt matter as much...
