Ok guys i'm getting the bbk lowering springs for my coupe that they claim lowers the car 1.5 inches which my car really needs but thats not really the question I have which is how your car sits. I'm wondering if they are level or do they have some rake in them, I'm looking for level but a lil bit of rake is fine. Thanks for your help....

Ive had 3 different types of springs on my 92. I had cut stockers, eibachs, and now BBK progressive rate. I like the BBK's the best. Pretty even, i think it has a little rake but its not visually obvious, you would actually have to use a measuring tape to see the difference. Oh, and be careful of those speed bumps and pot holes. Makes oil pan say ouchy. I would suggest getting a aftermarket pinion snubber also. I hooked so hard last year that the diff cover hit the spare tire valley and cracked the cover. Or make sure you massage the diff side of the tire well with a BFH. You know big F(_)CKING hammer.

I agree

I have the BBK lowering springs and they work great. Like sylentbut... said they are pretty even with just a little rake which would require the actual tape measure to see. However, once I put aluminum heads and moved the battery I think the stance was exactly even. My car was really low with these springs and yes you do have to watch for pot holes or speed bumps. Also I was able to hook really well at the track with them. I got a best of 1.72 60' time with stock everything else.
