Default DMS springs installed... Very pleased

I had the DMS springs installed on my 2000 Camaro last Friday. It took a while, and about 2 hours on the alignment rack, but it the perfect stance, doesnt bottom out at all, handles better, rides the same (not harsher at all), no body roll AT ALL. I have 17 X 11 on back with 315's and they were close to rubbing prior to the 1.5 inch drop, but have MORE clearance now than at stock ride height (still have stock panhard rod). You can tell the factory setting of pushing the whole axel to the passenger side a little less than 1/2 inch if you look real careful at the rear. The tires are tucked up insied perfectly, and I couldnt be more pleased. Very good product, and cheap too, about $184 delivered.

Ive had DMS springs for over 2 years now and I love them. I love the racked look it give my car. It lowered the front about 1.5 inches and the read is alittle over an inch.

This is how my car sat with DMS springs and KYB shocks with rear isolator removed




Im in the process of putting Bilstein HD shocks on my car so this picture is with Bilstein shocks in the rear with the rear isolator IN on DMS springs

Talking about the rear being off center with the stock springs well I had the same problem and once I lowered it with the hotchkis it was perfect with the adj phr at stock length still.
