I just installed the eibach pro kit and man they make all the difference I just love them .

If you get a chance take a look at the BMR springs. We have a couple different options to choose from, here is what we ciurrently have available for the 2010+ Camaros.
1" lowering springs (SP019) 1.4" lowering spring (SP022) 1.4"/1" lowering springs (SP025) If you do a search on here there a ton of BMR customers that have posted pictures and that are very happy with their BMR Springs. If there is anything I can help you with let me know. |

Provided the wheels have the proper offset, you shouldn't have a problem lowering your car with any of the springs listed. Personally, I like the Pfadt springs 1.25in all around, but they are about $50 more than your posted budget.

Seems like I will be going with Eibach Pro-Kit Lowering Springs 1.0 (front) and 1.3 (back). There is not a lot of information anywhere on Pi Springs and the reviews that I have found are mixed at best. Will be ordering them tonight...

Manufacturing a cold wound coil is half the cost of a hot wound coil. Cold wound coils are great for motorsport, but in every day use will sag quickly compared to a hot wound coil. For daily driver use a hot wound coil is clearly superior. Value is determined not at the cost of the purchase but over useful life.

We have a DIY section that is very good and filled with most installs. A quick search there should bring up everything you need.
