I want to lower my 99 ws6 trans am. Can I get by with just buying springs that lower my car 1.25-1.5 inches? I know I will eventually have to buy shocks, but for now, can I just buy the springs and leave the stock stocks on there and ride with it lowered for a summer and then buy shocks for the next year? I dont want to spend tons of money on lowering it, is there a way I can get around getting the whole package and just go with just springs? How bad will the ride be with the eibach pro kit springs with stock shocks? any input is appreciated. thanks

I agree. You will hate the ride with stock shocks. Svae up for some koni's or something else. You will be glad you did.

The difference with stock springs and a good set of shocks is night and day I have friends with Bilstien revalves, one with Koni DA, and I have single adjustables. Just doing shocks made a huge difference in the body roll and overall handling feel in the cars I have been in. Like they say above it is definetly worth saving to get shocks when you get your springs.
