Lowering Springs

I was looking into buying some lowering springs for my car.....I drive a 2008 GT and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions maybe some pictures of their cars stance and where they purchased their springs from. I was looking at the h&r super sport springs....any feedback would be appreciated.

Welcome aboard TJ There are so opinions out there its crazy. Just kinda search around and you will see tons of lowered cars. First decide how much youi want to drop it then find the springs that will fit the bill.

Man, that's a great deal. I wish I could get a deal like that up here in Canada. I need to lower the rear of my car at least 2" instead of currently 1 1/2". A Sportline kit up here, with a killer discount, is gonna run me close to $300 after taxes. Sorry for the hijack.

There's a thread in the Exterior Mods section that shows cars with 18" rims dropped and another one with 20" rims dropped.

Search through that...

Eibach claims 1.5" Front and 2" Rear. It seems to be about that from the pictures that were posted in the thread I posted a link to.
