"rake" look is what people use to refer to the front being lower than the back... so its got a "rake" to it...

LOL, I'm in Ontario too, guess that makes sense. I get a bit of noise from the front too, but same thing, nothing horrible. My mechanic said it had to do with my stock long sturts. Once I wear them out, I'll get smaller ones

hey i wanna get these springtech springs but someone said to get their struts too otherwise it rides like a truck and is a rough ride...i checked their site www.suspensionmax.com and no struts came up for our vehicle...where do you get their struts, and how hard is the installation of everything?

on stock struts its actually not that bad...it is rougher then stock, but i mean, what can u expect? i was really happy with the ride because i find it doesn't ride like a truck at all...

and yeah i'm gonna run stock struts till they wear out too...i'm a lil short on cash now cuz of the setup i bought...

yeah i have like the same look as you 2000 olds,,,i have the 2 door blk alero with tints and chrome rims kinda similar to u...and the drop on your car looks soooo much better especially in the back then what my car loooks like where it looks like it has a hump back or something...it looks like such a drastic change with the springs but if i just get the springs and not new struts am i gonna hear weird noises coming from the back like some people say? and ne1 have an idea on how much installation would cost?

well it's normal that u'll have weird noises cuz the springs are gonna shift around till they set...and to get installed it cost me 126$CND(shop that charged $55/hour) but u could do it urself if u look in the how to section there's a detailed topic there...and thanx for the props too :thumbsup:

I get my noises from the rear, doesn't do it over big bumps. Just on washboard like surfaces. I hope it's just the struts in back and not anything else.

I get those noises on washboard surfaces too. I think it is ok, my mechanic said so, and I trust him (yeah I know, a scary idea)
