Best lowering springs?
Looking for some good springs, that I can daily with. I've seen some strano springs, and some eibach lowering springs. Just trying to find some springs to give me a good stance. Post what you think would be best for me.

I got the complete BMR handling package i think its the stage 2. I could daily drive my car if it wasnt for the Long tube headers that stick out too low.
I still drive it with no problem, just have to be extra careful.
Rides great, handles like no other F Body i've ever driven.

It is hard to go wrong with our BMR lowering springs. They give the car a nice stance and perform very well without sacrificing the ride quality. Here are a couple pictures to show the stance that our lowering springs give.

strano/koni here....
car handles very very well... I still need to get sway bars but its a night and day difference. the amount of body roll is like half of what it was stock. and the car rides nice and tight.

Thanks for the kind words, guys. Our customers are very fond of our springs and the comfort that comes with a lifetime warranty. We always have them in stock, save for a brief period last month we ran out because of our Koni shocks and free springs sale, but they're back in large quantities once again!

It was
Front/Rear sway bar
4 BMR springs
Rear lower control arms
Relocation brakets
Tokico HP shocks
Adj Panhard rod bar (worked like a charm)
Sub-frame connectors (still not on the car)
The difference from OEM to BMR package was, and I know a lot of people say this but I actually truly mean it, NIGHT AND DAY.
Stock was smushy, tons of body roll and not very confident on higher speed maneuvering.
The BMR package gave it the ride it needed. Firm, planted but not harsh. How GM should have made it in the first place.
Great feel. Even smashing the gas pedal launches the car in a straight line. No crazy usual tail spin.
Theres a really nice closed road under the flood way in my area and it has a great 90 degree swoop.
I took it, gave is some gas to spin out the back to drift the curve and it literally drifted with the wheels damn near straight. Minor wheel turn to get the car going where I wanted it and it did exactly that.
Very predictable handling

Strano/Koni's here. Daily drove it the summer after I put them on and had no issues. I still want to get strano sways, but right now I feel like the car is like driving on rails compared to stock. It's a very comfortable ride and handles and corners really well. I would say get Strano or BMR since they are pretty much identical. All in preference on what brand you would rather have on your car (and color: Strano=white BMR=red). Don't go with eibachs unless you want a crappy riding car...
