alero lowering springs
 
what springs is anyone using that lowered their aleros

doubleN0alero 05-18-2008 11:07 PM

It really depends on how low you want to go. Intrax and ST will take you the farthest...Eibach are decent for a little drop. my buddy is also in NJ with intrax and he has no issues with snow/potholes, etc

Redog 05-18-2008 11:09 PM

I use the Eibachs. I like the drop and it doesn't give a bad ride either. Road here in PA suck, you can bottom out at stock height

doubleN0alero 05-18-2008 11:11 PM

ha, you can bottom out in a truck in PA

bryan213 05-18-2008 11:34 PM

I have dropzone springs for a malibu. they give you quite a bit of drop and the ride is good a little stiff. I have bottomed out a few times but just have to watch where I drive.


Vinalero 05-19-2008 05:24 PM

I could bottom out every day if I was not careful :(

TheAftermath 05-19-2008 05:24 PM

How much did the dropzone's run for you?
Do they mount on correctly or do you have to do some work to get them on?

:haha: I got em for $52 new off ebay :haha:. the guy had em listed wrong and I found em and won them for $12 and $40 shipping. they run around $120 to $160 (shipped). I got lucky. they fit with no mods they lower an alero more because the springs for a malibu are shorter i beleive.

good price here $99.99 + shipping (DZ-SP3300)

in this pic it looks a lot lower in the back cuz of the way my drive way is. but it still is a little lower in the rear. I needed a new windsheild I tried to put my hand thru it ( it didn't work ) :lol: $150 installed (glad i know people):lol:

i have sprint, which i believe r the same as springtech, and another brand. decent drop, stiffer ride, but my fiance hasnt even noticed that its lowered so i guess not too bad. rear looks about 1/2 to 3/4 inch lower than the front. got a couple pics in a thread somewhere.

mfuller 05-19-2008 11:51 PM

I hated the lower rear that results from most aftermarket springs for the Alero....that's why I use H&R springs.

Damn lucky.
I found that same site when I searched after reading the first post haha. I know others don't like it but I prefer to have the back that low. I hate it when it has that "lifted in the rear" kinda look. But hey that's just me.

Naich 05-20-2008 08:56 AM

I have intrax springs, have had them since like 04 I think, and they're great. Nice ride, stiffer than stock but not painful. Handles a lot better.

I got DropZone springs at http://www.madracingconcepts.com/Springs/springs.htm
Cost me $89 w/ free shipping as of a week ago.

The rear did drop lower then I expected, but not enough to bother me.

Trickyslick 05-21-2008 12:26 PM

Seaaan 05-21-2008 02:37 PM
