Ok, so after reading for abit, it seem like the eibachs give their rated drop, the sprints give more (2-3inchs) but what do the intrax give you? Im looking for about 1.75, mainly cause ok all the damn snow we get here..... are there any options besides the eibachs? The only other thing I could think of was swapping the stocks in in the winter, buy thats abit of a pain lol

I've noticed since I put the eibachs on that when we have deep snow (14 inches or more) my car will push thru, but the tail will slide out like a RWD car

Not with the e-brake either, I don't do that shit

The Sprint springs are just fine in the snow. They give you about 1.75-2" drop when they settle. You'll never be able to tell the difference of a 1/4 inch anyways.

Intax is decent...i think its like 1.75 drop maybe 2...they do well in the snow, i've driven through quite a bit of snow and never had a single issue. I've driven through snow in the snowbelt and didn't go anywhere, but where I had intended. No tailspin at all.

Lol, $50? Thats pretty damn good, if there a decent ride, and a 2" drop.... you'll have to let me know how they are. Anyone have any experience with the h&r springs? I've used that brand before and was pretty happy (minus my rear struts blowing haha, but that was a different car)

i know this thread has been dead for a while, but seems to be talking about exactly what i was gonna ask. how much stiffer than stock are the dropzone springs? my front shocks were replaced maybe 15k ago, the rears i have no idea, may be orig. if its not a whole lot of difference, the price is definitely right.
