I don't know....seems like you would want to use the correct springs for the est performance

I did run BMR 1" drop springs for a short time on my DSSv's. The DSSV's have less compression travel than the OE, non-Z/28 struts. So using the 1" drop springs will limit your travel. And since the DSSV's are tuned for the Z/28 springs, you may give up optimum performance by changing to a different spring.

What is a set of DSSV struts and springs worth?

Not much if your the guy trying to buy them, if your the seller a lot, but we sold the ones we had at $1200 a set back in the day.

P.S. we are sold out.

We cant call them new, but lets say the where ones that never made them in to Z/28, we got them from GM at the end of the build of 5th gen car from the plant in Canada, same as the Z/28 rimes you where looking at.

P.S. if need be i can post some pics, i have one set here for my cars, and last week found one that was leaking in my car, time to replace it.

Supercup · 03-26-2019, 01:48 PM

Thanks - I would call those new! Was just wondering for price comparison to some of the take off's I thought your were new, and a great value at $1,200!

Interested that you had a leak - how many miles on the car - hard mile (track curbs etc.) or just normal use?

Nice to have spares laying around for sure!

Sorry the wheel deal didn't work out, really wish I had those.

Thx for response and have a good week!

I just replaced my drivers side rear, it was leaking pretty good. Never tracked 5600 mile 2014.

I wonder if lack of, or very limited use, can contribute to leaking?

So my car has 8k on it and all most all are track miles, 75% track 25% street.

That is odd, same as my car.
