Yep it has been asked a million times.
Go to summitracing.com, the part number for the alero is INT-25-1-040.
It is $200.99 shipped or at least it was a month or so ago when I ordered mine.

id call them up and ask them for the part number for intrax springs for an ALERO..... not the springs for the GRAND AM
we found out afew months ago there is actually a part number for springs for the alero specifically. now ive never actaully heard anyone bought them yet....... but they are supposed to lower the front end more than the GA springs. they are also stiffer if i remebre correctly.
and im not crazy on this........ fuller knows about this too. matt where are ya?

Yeah the part number I gave was specifically for the alero.
They always seem to be on backorder but it doesnt take that long to get them.

By the way I have the alero intrax springs on my car with KYB gas struts. I was waiting to take pics in the spring because right now I have my rims off for the winter so I am riding around with my factory rims minus the hubcaps lol.

yeah i remember that he got a firebird spring...but then i think they also sent him both sets, and he had to send one back too, well at any rate....the alero springs will give a lil more firmer ride i think because the load ratings were higher....doesnt make sense i know..cuz the ga weighs more...but eh...ill take the alero springs

Yea...I cant wait till I get em. I'll be ridin' the stock 01+ GLS wheels for afew months(at least.. :unsure: ) But I think it'l still look cool. Better than the friggin 3inch gap between the tire and bottom of the fender/quarters!!!!!

hey guys -- that person was I who took the pics and did the comparison of the different springs and all that stuff....
JTURKEY69 was correct with his description of the springs. and my pics were alero intrax vs ga intrax... conclusion: very very weird
and yep i got screwed with the transam spring in my set of ga springs.
ask me whatever u want about the 2 springs.. i still prob have those pictures with the measurements and stuff sitting somewhere on my computer...

Yea, any info u have on comparing alero vs. ga springs would be GREAT!!!!. I actually contacted Intrax about it and have heard nothing. My alero intrax have been on back order since FEB...and i'll just switch to the GA ones if they are a lower drop.
So..... which has the lowest drop?
any info u have would be MUCH appreciated!! :thumbsup:
