DONT LIKE MY NEW SPRINGS!!!!!
Ok. I got new Eibach pro-kit springs in the back. I'm not sure if i was misinformed but it turns out i got a 1.5 drop in the back and 1.0 drop in the front which is not what i wanted!!!!!
I wanted my car to look more aggressive by lower the front a bit more.
A friend recommended H&Rs 2.0 in the front and 1.6 in the back.
What do you guys think? Any other brands?
Thanks a lot!

Never heard of such a thing! I do know that Eibach lowers the back the same as the front which makes your car look squated in the rear. I have posted this numerous times. You want 3/4 or 1" drop in the rear and 1.5" up front. Throw those4 eibach's away and get eaither Ford C springs or Roush racing springs. They sell the roush only in singles which is very convinient so you can buy just 1 spring if you like or just the rear. I bought mine on Ebay for $110 shipped! I used BBK 1.5 up front cuz I bought them used on ebay for $40. My set-up looks hot!

I think i wrote it wrong... haha sorry
they were 1.5s front and back but the front does look less dropped.
Lesson well learned but what springs aside roush and ford racing can i look at for 2.0 drops in the front and 1.5+ in the back and what do people think about the drop in the front more than the back?
:-)
I looked at H&Rs super race springs and eibach sportlines

Tell me about it. Well lesson learned. I probably take out the pro-kit springs and either put in sportlinse or h&r super race springs which do about the same drops.
Also, the more drop i do...makes it slower or faster? forgive me if it sounds retarded but i wanted to make sure before i do another mistake.
Just in case anybody is wondering... i put some stats on my car and a pix later.
Also, if i get bump stops for my springs, will that make the ride quality better or is there anything i can use...i think i need lubing but i'm not sure. I'll get used to it eventually but anything that helps is better.

Sportlines or h&r's will get youanother1"unless you want to do coilovers which is a lot more expensive but it's worth the cost and being able to set any height you want. just my.02 Dan
