BMR, Eibach or pfadt for 2012 Camaro 2SS?
I'm on the market to upgrade the suspension on my 2012 Camaro 2ss/rs. I am interested in BMR, Eibach, or Pfadt. I am wondering which would be the best for spring/sway bar kit. I want at least 1 inch drop. I understand the 2012 has the improved Fe4 suspension, so some the older 2010/11 kits might not work, is that correct? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

I too am i looking to lower my car ... I have a 2012 .. im hopefully upgrading to 22's with 30 profile tires.. obviously its not going to feel like stock ... but if your trying to stay to stock feeling suspension as close as possible whats the best possible set up ? im possibly considering BMR Level 2 ...

I went with BMR 1" drop springs, front and rear sways, cradle inserts and got Pedders radius bushing inserts for the front and I'm very happy with the results. Plus I was able to do all of it in my one car garage. The '12 verts still have the FE3 but if I'm not mistaken, for the FE4 you just need to get rear sway bar links. BMR was a great help as are all the other manufacturers listed. There is a wealth of info here so search around and make an informed choice... just don't spend every waking hour doing so like I did!! haha

Pfadt is working a nice FE4 sway bar solution right now. I believe they are already in-testing phases with the new bar.
As per the springs, Pfadt would be a great lowering spring to get that 1" drop out of them. They have a nice look at to them and increase the handling capability. Did I mention that we have the entire Pfadt product line, and numerous other products on special for this entire week as we premier the new website. For every Pfadt order you will receive an ECS Gift Certificate good for a future order (Of any product through ECS) for 12% of your entire Pfadt order! |
