Default Lowering soon

I know that i would get some info on a search, but im going to order the stuff this week, i wanted to get some last feed back
Eibach Sport Line Spring Kit or Ground Control Coilovers?!?

The Springs cost about 100$ less, but i can not adj them, the drop is 1.6 and 1.6, But Ground control, you can go lower or higher if needed. How many of you with GC, adj them? Also, Just out of what you guys know, which work better with KYB/AGX.

I have sportline's right now, swapping them out for ground controls soon. I wish I would have went with ground controls the first time around. The drop isn't quite even.

Both of them will work well with KYB AGX's.

I've always believed in: Do it right, do it once. I vote for GC's

Honestly, I live in MN and have never had a problem with a lowered car in the winter. Hell, last year I didn't even move my coilovers. If that's one of your conciderations, don't worry about it. And now I've got springs, and prefer the ride to that of coilovers. With good shocks, it's way smoother, and still can corner as well...

yeah get some grounds controls and slap on some AGX'a or illumina's and you'll be set.

I've been riding 3 3/4inches in my coupe for 6 months now :thumbup:

Slammed is the only way to go...

when I pull up people say damn that car is low

I would normally say that if you don't need the adjustability go with regular lowering springs, but those have the tendency to be uneven. I'd go with the GC's just so you could have the satisfaction of having an all around even drop.

why would u want to adjust them? a good height are the sportlines... you probablu would set the GCs to that height... and utimately never move them unless you wanna go 4 wheelin or 12 inchs of snow outside (you can't drift in that btw )

i vote sportlines... OR prokit... remmeber AGXs lose the warantee if u lowerit more than 1.5 inches (sporlines are 2 rite?)

sportlines are excellent, BUT, I wish they were a little more stiff. GC's you can recommend your spring rates and that is a plus. I've been thinking about trading in for GC's. Oh and the KYB's are great also.

H/R sports are 1.5-1.8 drop ....same with the Neuspeed Sports except that Neuspeed will be a little stiffer.

I have H/R RACE in my sig for sale if u are interested. These drop 2.25-2.5.
