how does that happen with springs that are supposed to lower your car more in the front than the rear?

wouldn't that be the opposite of what would happen because of all the weight in the front with the engine and all and hardly any weight in the rear?

Do you know the condition of your struts? My stock struts were completely blown out when I put the lowering springs on. I installed KYB struts after the fact and it raised the car up another 1/2 inch in the rear. Your car appears to be sitting where mine did with blown struts.

I checked ( got the guy at my buddys shop take a look at em )the struts when I installed the springs and they were fine. the ride feels fine. its smooth but stiff not jaring like it would be with blown struts

Would the malibu dropzone springs with an AAS kit be far too much of a drop though?

Granted I live in Phoenix so the roads are damn nice, but it seems the dropzones give you quite a few inches of drop.

Would the DropZone springs for the Z24 be too low? Also do they even fit?

[cliffordwoeller]

ok i have 18" tires and wheels and I like eibach but I really want to go a lil lower so what springs would you all recommend without rubbing or going too low? they said the eibachs would lower my car about 2 inches in the rear and 1 and a hlaf in the front.. but to mee it still looks like my ho is riding too high...

I have new Intrax springs in the classifieds for cheap. They will put you a little lower.

I used SPRINT springs looks good but rides pretty rough.

[Fi-Alero]

My rear sits alot lower than my front

I guess it could be the 304 pounds of audio in the trunk lol.

What are some symptoms of blown struts? My ride is pretty rough

[Midgear]

304 pounds of audio in the trunk -might- be the cause of your ass sinking into the pavement

bad struts would cause your car to bounce when you push down on the area that you think has the "blown" strut.. the more worn out the strut is.. the more it bounces.

a "good" strut- you can press down on the car and release and the car should come back up and stay in the upward position and not move

[Fi-Alero]

Thanks Midgear lol. I'll check tomorrow.

My rear bumper is like 3-4" from the ground.

so the malibu springs will fit on an alero

Malibu, GA, and Alero from 98 to 04 (Malibu to 03) are ALL the same car
