Let's see your lowered Camaro.

Looking into lowering mine. What company do you guys recommend?

I have the eibach springs. They're great. They make the car look so much better. They make the suspension a tiny bit stiffer but not much by any means. Still fine for long drives. I'd recommend them

BMR makes great lowering springs. I would suggest the 1 in lowering springs. It will improve your cars handling without making it too stiff. Let me know if you have any questions on them. I'd more than happy to help!

Best regards,

I'd recommend Hotchkis, for a comfortable 1" drop that really performs nicely... not too harsh...

I second the BMR springs like JDP Sales said. I have the BMR 1.25" lowering springs and the ride is not stiff at all. It feels very close to the stock springs.

Hotchkis for me as well. The rear settles even more after about 300 miles. Looks great now!
I bolted everything back to specs, even lining up the "green" inspection/torgue marks. Went in for an alignment. Technician said I was spot on. No charge
