well i was looking for 1.7 drop but i dont know which kit does that, if i had a coupe, i would have made my choice already, but for a vert is harder, also, sum springs are only for coupes and sum fit both or only for verts... its kinda complicated...

H&R Super Sports is what I have and will drop it as much was you wanted.


H&R 1" Wheel Spacer, 274/40/17 tires



Hope this helps, you will scrape on some bumps on the front crossbrace member that is under the kmember, its basically my skid plate now.

It is night and day with the springs, the car is alot more planted to the road and there is no body roll. If you get these springs you just have to be a lil more aware of the roads you drive on, sometimes I will be driving fast and I will hit some dips or take some crappy rutted out roads and the front k member will scrape. You should also look into getting subframe connectors asap also.

i have the same problem as 90ranger, my front crossbrace is more of a skid plate now. My clearance is about 3inches max in the front, 4 in the rear. I sat my car next to my buddies Z06 vette and mine sits lower. It can be a real PITA but you just have to keep your eye on the road and watch out for those ruts from trucks.

i have the steeda sports, they claim 1.5 inch...i would install the bullit suspension kit...it includes everything for @350 and will lower your car about 1-1.25 inches...that will be perfect. I'm looking for the springs myself..i can't take the car hitting everything.

I barely get 3 inches in the front anymore. I've bottomed many times on the freeway. But I have learned exactly what she'll go over and not.
