Summit springs?
I'm working on a daily driver for my little sister; not a performance suspension at all! She wants to go a little lower than stock and I've dumped so much into this car for her already... has anyone used the Summit drop springs yet? and what are some descent shocks that don't cost $100 bucks a pop?
Thanks guys!

interesting.. i haven't heard of those springs.
no info on what the rates are.
springs should not be purchased based on price.. they're all roughly in the same range
you should call them and find out who makes the springs for them and what the rates are.. report back to us i'm far too lazy
they LOOK like a nice stiff linear spring in the front.

ok just called Summit the fronts are a linear with 400 lbs and the rears are progressive with 80-137 lbs. What do you guys think? Also the claim a 1-1.5 inch drop.

Those are Pro-kit rates.... And there was a guy who got them over on camaroz28.com and wasn't impressed. Pro-kits from Eibach have issues from time to time, can't imagine what ones that are being sold more cheaply have going on. Maybe painted vs. powdercoated? Maybe blems from Eibach? And FWIW, when you can only "claim" a drop within 1/2" that's trouble. And we know that Eibach claims 1.25", some are while others have been as low as 1.75".....
I think you are going to get just exactly what you pay for.

to be honest i was running summit parts on my old nova, spent 4500 bucks on the whole car summit parts are designed buy other companys, for example there wires are made by talyor , and so on and so i would not doubt that they got the springs design from eibach
