RS V6 suspension same as SS?

Hey guys, looking at lowering my 2015 V6 an inch with the Eibach Pro-Kit springs (38144.140). Looking to lower the front only, but having the rear springs in hand, just in case I decide to lower the rear as well in the future.

It's my understanding that the RS package has the SS suspension. Am I wrong? The springs only come in SS and ZL1 suspensions and I want to know if they will work on my car.

38143.140 is the V6 springs which I currently have installed.

V6/RS and SS have different springs - I assume different shocks as well. Whether or not the V8 springs fit on the V6 I'm not sure but I assume they would considering they use the same chassis; if they do fit you may actually want the V8 springs as I find the V6 springs bottom out too easy. With the said, I plan to buy me some BC Racing coilovers next year

Eibach makes Lowering Springs for 2010-2015 Camaro LT/LS V6 38143.140, you were talking about 38144.140 and those would be for 2010-2015 SS & ZL1. You would want the lowering springs that Eibach makes for your V6 because they were made to fit your vehicle, I would not recommend using the V8 ones. The RS package doesn't change anything on the suspension only on the lights.

Appreciate it. I'll definitely check out the V6 springs.
