lowering

i notcied my rear struts are starting to squeek a bit...so what better excuses to buy new ones and lower it my quistion is....i have a 2.2 auto...will the drop be even in the front and back? (i read somewere it wouldnt drop the front) also, are the springs all i need to lower it? and will it work with stock struts. and should i go with sprint or eibach....please let me no.

yes it will drop the front if u get springs for the whole car..i would spend the extra money and get eibachs they seem to be the best. you can use stock struts but if they are squeaking now and you put lowering springs on them you are asking for trouble. IMO you might as well replace the struts and springs at the same time.

KYB GR2 struts seem to be a favourite with Eibachs.
