lowering the 05

RE: lowering the 05
On the lowering kit I got through STEEDA I didnt have to change anything out other then the springs since the drop wasnt that low only about 1 inch. Dont know about the 2inch drop kits though, my guess would be yes, but you might want to search the boards to see if anyone has gone lower, or call Eibach or H&K directly.

For those of you who have lowered your 05, have you just used springs, or have you bought new shocks/struts or a suspension kit?
What brands did you use?

RE: lowering the 05
before you guys go and lower you cars you should probably know about some of the side effects. im not just talking about scraping you bumper and rougher ride but also bump steer. if you dont know what it is its what happens when the suspension geometry is so far off factory specs that as the tire moves up and down itll tow in and tow out. basicly the car will steer (without the wheel moving) itself over anything but a perfectly smooth road. probably not much of an issue with only 1 inch drop but ive heard guys talkin about 2+ inches!! if your going to lower your car that much you had better know what your doing or youll end up with a car that handels WORSE
