You must do an alignment. I had them align mine the same day the springs were installeed and i will have them recheck it after a few hundred miles.

Considerably more visual difference on the V6(higher stance than V8s)..
Alignments, maybe not depending on amount of drop(what I've heard from manufactures). Some 'bump stop' modification on some kits as well...

Does H&R have any kits avail yet?

Tennessee Outlaw · 11-27-2009, 02:26 PM

Yep that looks good, they make a good kit for sure.

NAHURRY · 11-27-2009, 04:46 PM

Looks sick,sick

....Were did you order from?

marcajrfan · 11-29-2009, 10:59 AM

what did the dealer charge to install?

Merc · 11-29-2009, 11:32 AM

I would like to lower mine too. But I don't think I can get up my driveway without it scraping. Have to get my buddy to pull it up the driveway so I can watch. Wife does not do standards. LOL

mike25 · 11-29-2009, 09:32 PM

i would have to agree. very nice drop. only downfall ive ever had with springs is it always makes the wheels look like theyre tucking at the top. does it do that on this car? (assuming so)

car rides awesome

Quick question....I have the 2SS with factory ground effects. Has anyone had/heard about clearance issues of the effects over everyday obstacles (road reflectors, etc) after lowering? Looks quite nice with the 1" drop, I'm interested to see how it looks with the ground effects on there.

I have the Eibach 1" springs as well as factory GFX on mine.The front lip is the only thing you will need to watch out for on high curb stops,etc. The distance from my front lip to the ground is aprox 6" on the sides/edges and 7" in the center.

mike25 · 12-02-2009, 08:40 PM

would you be able to get some more pics of this? im thinking about a drop to lower the car and make her look better in terms of wheel gap..but id like to see some better side angles etc.

I finally recieved my Eibach Springs and Sway Bars.

Now I just need to find someone to install them.

I am considering taking them to the Dealership that does all of my service, but the price is pretty high right now with the holidays around the corner.
