I was wondering if any of you guys have heard of VOGTLAND springs. I was logged on to Ebay and looking for H&R springs for my 2k v6 vert and ran into those springs. I read some reviews and saw a pic of a car dropped on a set and from the looks of it, they are a great buy. Just wanted to check in with y'all before I take the plunge.

I have no knowledge of their quality or specs. All I know is that it's a German company.

Before you buy them check the spring rate and how much it's going to lower your exact vehicle. The higher a spring rate the stiffer the ride. If you go 1.5" down you'll need CC plates.

Yeah, never heard of them. Definately do as the previous post and also I put Bilstein's on mine which dropped 1". Don't recommend anymore than that unless you have very flat and smooth roads. I've had my K-member scrape a couple of times and when I get my oil changed they have to roll my car in otherwise it hits the bar. It is fun to watch them roll it in though.

Good luck

I believe a lot of NASCAR teams use them, along with a bunch of Euro mfg's. The Air Hog Mach 1 that Hot Rod mag. built has them, and so does guy at Mach 1 registry, he seemed to like them.
