I have been doing quite a bit of research and I am trying to decide between Bilstein HD's w/stock springs or SLP spec Bilsteins w/SLP Springs. I know the rears are the same shock. I am just curious as to just how much they lower the car (.5 inch or 1 inch?) and if sagging is a problem.
I am currently on stock springs and shocks w/126k miles on my 02 Z28. Passenger rear shock is blown.
PLEASE POST PICS! Already searched, and the ones that posted pics, do not show up I guess cause the website coding changed a while back.

The SLP springs are said to lower the car up to 1". They are one of the springs that lowers the car the least from what I have seen. Sam Strano sells them.

Ls1Aggie,
I like the ride. They did drop it a bit lower then the stock springs. Its been so long since I did them I can't really remember exactly how much. They drop isn't as much as most aftermarkets, but it is enough to notice. Ride is decent, not bouncy or too firm. I have the standard Bilsteins on mine as well as the 1LE swaybars front and back. Overall its decent.
