Same as the fronts
I bought these wheels used with good front tires and shot rears.

So I ordered some Cooper Zeon RS-3’S from American Tire Distributors. One of them has side wall damage from sitting on the shelf. Looks like it might have been the one on the very bottom. Looks like the weight from all the tires stacked on top of it put indentions in the side wall. The replacement tire is coming from Forth Worth so I won’t see it before the weekend. I wanted to install these and get them on the car this weekend, oh well. I can wait.

I recently installed some new KYB’s in the rear and it raised the back up quite a bit. My car still had the original shocks that were toasted. I haven’t bought lowering springs in a long time. Besides coil overs, what kind of springs these days provide a nice ride and good ride height?
@Foxslider just did some Eibach Sportlines, with a good before and after pic. Not sure if they are the “ride” you’re looking for, but it gave it a nice stance.
Cars lookin good with that new paint!! Love those taillights on it!!

Ditto on the car looking good!
Are you looking for a spring kit or just the rears? I’d give maximum morotorsports a call and see what they say. They have some pretty knowledgeable techs that will point you in the right direction.

Steeda sport springs. Not too harsh, not too low. According to Steeda they will lower 1-1.25 all around. After settling it’s probably more like 1.5 out front 1.25 out back. I installed brand new isolators with them. Steeda has them on sale on their website for $188. Don’t know if they charge shipping.

That’s what I’m talking about. I haven’t lowered one of these In 15 years. I don’t want to go too low. Just a inch and a half, maybe 2 inches. I definitely want a nice ride.

Nice drop all around. Yeah I know, not looking to go all out it this point. I’d love to though.

They have a good spring product line and they know their foxbody suspensions. They may try to sell you some of their other products. But theylll give you a good recommendation on lower springs.

Yeah those sidewalls were pretty jacked. I already got new tires a second time and they were fine.
I have the eibach pro kit on these two cars. Ride is great and the ride height speaks for itself.

This is my coupe when it was also on Eibach pro kit before I went with Maximum Motorsport coilovers.

Way back I had eibach pros. The stance they gave looked great. Ride was a little bumpy but I still had the factory struts/shocks.
BTW, I think Maximun’s spring line is H&R.

You could also remove the isolators from the factory springs for a little drop.. might not be as much of a drop as your looking for though

I didn't think about that. That wouldn't give me any issues? Weird sounds, harsh ride?
