i have been looking around at drop springs for the car but i cant find a kit that comes with a 1 inch drop front and 1.5-1.8 rear

does anyone know of a kit like this or am i going to have to by the front and rear individually, and if thats the case wheres the best place online to order them from?

and do i need anything else for the front with a 1 inch drop so my alignment wont be all screwed up?


sorry for all the questions i just want to make sure i get this right before i shell out the cash and find out i made a mistake lol



thanks guys

 

steeda sport springs should be what your looking for, its a pretty conservative drop so stock shocks can still be used. imo steeda.com will have them.

 

would i need to do anything in order for my alignment to not be messed up if i was to do the eibach pro kit? it says its 1.3 front and 1.4 rear

 

I agree with the STEEDA Sport Springs... That's what I installed... Actual drop on my car was 7/8 inch in the front and 1.25 inches in the rear... I had absolutely no alignment problems with these springs...

 

I just put Eibach pro kit on my car on Saturday. Looks great and no allignment issues.

 

I put Steeda Sport Springs on mine. I used them to avoid the alignment issues also. Guess what I have to have camber adjusters. I really think whether or not it causes camber problems is dependent on your car. Just like no Nascar Cup Cars from the same shop are the same these cars are not the same either. I think the Steeda Springs probably offer the best chance of not causing camber issues. Check Brenspeed to order them.

 

If you decide to purchase the front springs and rear springs separately.
i.e. from different sources, make sure you ask them if you can purchase two springs without buying the whole kit. I know Steeda will sell just the front or rear springs. I found out after I bought the set as a "kit".

 

Steeda will sell the rears only? How cool. That's all I want. There certainly wouldn't be alignment probs with a rear replacement only, right? How about all of those people who just cut their factory springs? Anyone regret it or have problems because of it?

 

I've had the Steeda rear springs on since May and no issues. From what I understand, Steeda will sell just the rears, but you need to call them and ask for them as a separate item.

How hard was it to do yourself?

 

thanks for the input guys. if anyone else has any ideas on which springs to get or the best place to buy some of these kits please let me know

 

The back was a piece of cake. Keep in mind that you either need 2 jacks, or a jack and a jack stand.

There are 2 times that you will need an extra set of hands when putting each front spring in because you have to take out the entire strut and put it back up again. This thread helped me a lot with the install.
