With Spring Kit Is The Best?

ok guys and ladies i will be buying a set of drop springs next thursday and getting them installed i have a 3.4 alero with sport supenshion. i want the most drop out of springs as i can get but dont know if i should get the cheap springs or the expencive ones or ones in the middle? are the $300 springs the best and how do the cheapest springs compare? and the middle ones. i hate a flufey ride i want the stifest ride posible. and what is the benefit of puting new struts with the new springs?

ps have a 2 door and my vin and state of mich says i have a 4 door lol love the break on my insurance

Intraxs give you nice drop overall, and they are pretty stiff. When I got my Intraxs put on, I went ahead and put on new KYB GR2 struts as well. Now that's stiff. Handles great. Looks awesome too. Too bad my aftermarket wheels have like no sidewall on the tires so theres a gap again.

Sprint or SpringTech offer the most drop... and are really stiff.... should probably upgrade struts or the ride will be rough.

well, if you want stiffest. i'd say coilovers. lol, but that is pretty damn stiff

Too damn stiff.

i was thinking of getting air instead of the springs is there a differance between them and springs? in ride and handling? also after haveing them mounted how hard would it be to do the rest of the install?

if you don`t want the stifness of the coil over but yet you want the ride quality go with spring tech i had them before i went to a coil over, and i loved the ride and the performance i got from them
you ask about air ride airride.com or chassistech.com, both companies have air ride for our cars, my suggestion to you then would be go with the compressor system from airride and the struts from both companies are bolt on replacments
the compressor system from airride.com is so simple that my 8 yr can hoook it up
i have my coil overs for sale look in the bazzar section
and air ride will be installed very shortly

If shes large busted and good with her hands, allright.

[Oldsman]

actually after finding out what my spring rates are you may need more than mouthpiece and ciro......................lol

well looks like i am going to get the coil over from bydman and it looks like i woll be takeing a road trip to pick them up. any advice in the install of these like to i need a camber adjusrment kit for them? and is 150 a good price to get them installed?

[Oldsman]

will need a realignment after install

I posted this somewhere else too, cant remember...but I have a brand new camber kit. $30 and its yours. If u buy the coil overs from bdyman, let him know, and ill give him the camber kit.
