Hey guys im trying to find drag springs, or springs that transfer well, but also lower the car! I have the eibach pro-kit on my car and love the stance but they suck for trying to launch my car! I have 17" wheels on my car so the eibach drag springs would look silly on my car. (4x4) And ive heard if you cut coil(s) on the drag springs it will defeat the purpose.
My question is if there are any drag springs that will also lower my car?
What about 4cly springs, would they make my car sit lower?
How about if i cut the stock springs and put those back on?
Just looking for any input!
thanks!

Steeda drag springs sit a inch lower than stock. Or at least they do on a 89 gt.

The Moroso trick (front) springs work very well and can be cut to the desired ride height without affecting functionality. I used them on my GT with stock rear springs with success.

Four cylinder springs will make the car sit lower and will allow for some weight transfer too. A decent low buck alternative

hmmm, i may try just cutting the stock springs since i already have them.
They seemed to transfer fairly well back when i had them on.
I could also take a look at the steeda springs...
thanks guys

You could put drag springs on it and then run Adjustable Lower control arms to lower it on the street and raise it up on the track, but that's a more expensive option if you don't already have adjustable ones. A progressive rate spring that lowers the car a bit would probably be a decent option too.

I have exactly what Mr.Excessive said. Cut Moroso drag springs and well seasoned and cut 4 cylinder rears. They work like a champ!
