im lowered on bilstein shocks and eibach pro springs I think it’s too low any recommendations for some springs that sit higher and better quality ? Or even stock height springs that are good ? I’m not even sure how low it dropped it lol but big difference and there’s a lot of pot holes and messed up driveways in California lol

Plenty of springs out there that will work better for you. The Eibach pro kit has a 2" drop from what i can remember.. Thats quite a bit. Especially on Bilsteins. Strano and BMR are excellent choices. I happen to love my Hotchkis springs. They look fantastic and ride great, but are a pain in the d*ck to install.

BMR and Strano seem to be the most popular. No complaints with my BMR's

Living in California, I can attest to the condition of the roads. I went from Eibach Pro-Kit and KYB's to Strano springs and Koni S/A shocks. WORLD of difference. I've had a few people compliment me on the ride and handling of the car. It doesn't sit too low, but it doesn't sit high either. Car went up a little bit from the Eibach springs too.

I ran a Pro Kit & Bilsteins for years. Swapped them out a few years back for Stranos & Koni's. No regrets.

Strano's are probably going to sit the highest and will perform great while still looking good. I went BMR and Koni sports becasue of a crazy deal they were running and couldn't be happier. Ditch that eibach crap ASAP!

I carry Hotchkis too... but they are a nightmare to install, and you pay for for the privilege as well (and they don't work any better in fact some folks who went to mine from those prefer mine).

I liked the Hotchkiss when i had them on my car. I don't remember anything about them being any different to install.

Guys, please. Summit Racing? Strano has all the UMI stuff too, if you want to go that way. Theirs are stiffer and lower than are mine, but if you want I like the UMI guys and would happy to supply those.

And remember who is in here all the time, and who isn't (hint, I don't see Summit in here)

Sam is very helpful. I would buy off him again.

Hotchkis are very progressive, which means a whole bunch of coils touch each other and make getting a spring compressor in and out of the fronts to install is a pretty bit PITA unless you have access to a really fancy $600 type setup.

Best = Strano springs and Koni shocks. Night and day difference. One of the best upgrades I made!
Only thing I wish is the back sat slightly higher, I think I'm going to try doing the heater hose mod to get a little rake.

I have some options for the rear up if you want. How much higher do you want to be?

capelajc

I'd like to be 1/2 to 3/4 higher than now if possible

Easy, I have 1/2 aluminum spacers. $22.50 each. In stock.

I added some heater hose to my BMR springs. It gave me just over a 1/4". That was in addition to running the the rubber isolator
