Found this seems like there's a few cons according to spring MFGs but from the every day guy it seems lime a win win

To revive a semi-old thread, it seems like it's quite the upgrade for the V6 guys, but the jury is still out for the SS's. Anyone else try this?

I have ZL1 springs on my car. They give it a firmer ride, lowers the front 10mm and the rear 15mm.
