Question Best lowering springs out there?

I've been thinking of putting some lowering springs on my 98 z. Any suggestion on which ones I should buy without having to buy new shocks? I want ones that look good and perform good. I've been looking at the BMRs? Any other ideas?

your going to find out that you will need to upgrade the shocks. The stock decarbons will not work with aftermarket lowering springs! Do a search on this site and you will find tons of information

Best for what? What do you do with the car?

Yes you will need new shocks?

Best spring? Best at what? There isn't one set of do it all springs. Depending on what you want to do with the car will determine what types of springs you should use.

Sticky. Look for the height you like, then call Sam Strano or one of our other suspension experts to find out how to accomplish this.

Why do you want to be lower? How much lower? Do you have any ground clearance issues? How do you drive your car? Competition? Daily driver? AutoX or Drag? Any budgetary concerns?

There's far too many possiblities out there to say 1 is the best, so you need to know what your objectives are to help narrow down the field.
