Default Which springs-Eibach, Steeda, H&R?

Which springs will lower my car (00 gt conv) the most without having to purchase new shocks and struts? Eibach prokit? Steeda sport? H&R sport?

H&R will offer the lowest drop, but with any springs, a nice set of shocks and struts really balance out your suspention rate. It isnt NEEDED for any of those springs though.

I have h&r sports on mine so that gives you an idea of what itll look like.

H&R sports with stock or aftermarket shocks? If with aftermarket, how did they look with the stock shocks?

They will look the same but it will tie in to a balanced suspension, i also would recommend the offset rack bushings and steeda ball joints
I have H&R and like them alot, also have bilstein shocks/struts

I am getting ready to lower my 2002 also. I switch about every 10 minutes from H&R to C springs. :wallbash: I take it you didn't buy new c&c plates. How is your alignment?


I love your hood. I gotta have one!

What is the coupon or promotional code? It asks you in the billing info and I want to get these springs today.

not that it really matters at this point in the conversation but any of the makers you listed would be equally well suited. I'd get some shocks and struts too if you can swing it. It handles a heck of a lot better with upgraded dampers. If you get something more aggressive than a standard sport spring, I highly recommend getting the shocks/struts. The more aggressive the spring the more it wears your stockers.
