I just emailed the guys over at SSC (superiorsportchassis) and they DO have the lowering springs for the 07 Monte SS. The drop is approximately 1.7" and the price is $172.87 plus $40 shipping and handling.
Are there going to be a rough ride ?
Should I buy them?

Damn you guys are crazy dropping your cars 1.7", especially with those ground efx. Its gonna look awesome but there are gonna be issues with scraping. Camber may also be thrown off dropping the car that much.

Call summit phone line and request. It is not in their online catalog. I had to have them add the item number to their system and order.

UP to 1.8" on Intrax. Measure the drop on your car to get a better idea, 1.7" really isn't that much when I took some measurements. I'm not too worried about bottoming out as I don't drive the car every day.

The fender gap is hideous on these cars, well the montes anyways. I've always thought about dropping it to make it look better. Performance is good too. How much are people typically dropping the 2000-2005's? I don't want major scraping issues.

I have had a couple of cars lowereed, a thunderbird and a cougar. It's all about just being aware that the car is low and paying attention to where you are driving and parking lot curbs.
