Another vote for Intrax. A nice happy medium between the Eibach's and the sprints. Lower then the eibach's, but better better ride and handling then the sprints.

I've also got Sprints. here are a couple pics: Front 3/4 pic and Side pic. They drop just about 2 inches. it is a little bit stiffer ride but they make the car handle a lot better.

I've had springtech's for a while. The roads are pretty smooth here in Georgia
so I don't have any bumpy ride issues. The handling is great. Minimal body roll in corners. :thumbsup:

I've got the Eibach's. I like them. Don't drop it a lot but increase the handling capabilities by a lot.

Ive got Intrax springs, but would get Sprint if I had to do it over again just because you get a better drop. I have no other complaints about my intrax springs though.

hey spilner521, i'm thinking about getting the springtechs. Pretty soon i'm going to be getting some 18" rims put on. What size rims you have?? i'm not sure if I should get my rims first or springs so i know how far to drop it??? but if you have 18's i'll get the springs most likely right away

Hi i'm sure I probably asked this before but oh well i have the kato kombat kit and 20" rims. I'm wondering which set of springs is worth the money. I'm thinking eibach pro kit. So which ones would have the best drop for me and do you need to buy anything else with the springs or is that it for a better ride???

i'd recommend eibach if you got that kit proly. they give the least drop and are a tad stiffer than the rest. you dont really need anything else but everyone on here will tell you to get struts.

Ok, again I have the Kato kit and 20" rims. Most likely going with the eibachs unless i can go a little lower. When you order springs and the struts, doest everything you need for installation come along with the package or do you need anything else???
