Lowering Help Needed ASAP!! Ok well I have an 01 WS6 and my car is currently lowered right now, I think the stock springs were cut...and it looks like the stock shocks.
Front - from the fender to the top of the rim is 3 1/2 inches
Rear - from the fender to the top of the rim is 4 3/8 inches
The car rides like total ****!!! it feels like every tiny bump and crevice i bottom out....I jacked up the car and I can compress the srpings with my bare hands...
I want the car to be the same height after I put new springs on it...I like the look of it right now and it looks like the Eibach Sportlines are pretty close...I dont care about drag racing I am more into road racing...so I need a good spring
Does anyone know how these ride? Also anyone who has them on their car can they measure the distance from the fenders to the top of the rim?

A lot of people will not recommend Eibach for multiple reasons, I have no experience with them so I cant give you my feeling on them.
I like my G2's about the same drop as sportlines with out some of the problems Eibach has such as rear sagging. Handling is great but I can only compare to stock.
If you are into road racing I would look at the G2's or Sam Strano's new springs. Give Sam a call and discuss with him what your interested in and he can give you a good idea of a set up.

who makes these G2's? Never heard of them....I did see them on a pic on a car in a guys sig and they looked perfect....whats the drop on them?
How is the ride compared to stock? Ive driven a stock WS6 and thought the ride was pretty stiff and bumpy altho nothing like what im driving on now....i mean it kinda hurts when i hit a bump now...

LG Motorsports makes G2s, right?
Here is a helpfull link I stole from soulless: http://www.angelfire.com/my/fastcar/suspension.html
Shows some spring rates and drops. It however does not include Strano's springs, which are highly recommended. I plan 2 go w them (ironically) this spring.
Give Sam Strano a call. He is knowledgable, helpful, sells multiple manufacturers' springs, and can help you fit your needs.
