Just lowered my car now whats next?
Ok so I just lowered her yesterday with some steeda sport springs an it looks real nice especially with the 20 ive got on reallly helps them stand out more. My question is what should I do next bc im no suspension expert at all an its kinda my weak spot with cars. Im gonna be ordering new shocks/struts within the next month or so. What else would you guys recommend I do bc I want a little bit of overall better handling, no more wheel hop at the track an for it to be a nice smooth ride.

In addition have you checked any other recent threads in this forum that appear to be relevant?

I put the same springs on mine a few months ago, and at the same time, replaced the shocks/struts (with Tokico's). Your rear end is probably shifted a little towards the driver side now, so to get it back in line, an adjustable panhard bar is needed; but the shift isn't likely much, like less than 1/4".
Your front-end camber alignment will be out of spec now; it can be corrected with camber plates or camber adjustment bolts; I used a set of Eibach camber bolts on mine with no issues.
You should also check your driveshaft pinion angle. I didnt adjust mine as it was ok.

ok so after doing some research i think im gonna order the following.
steeda adj panhard bar
steeda hd panhard bar brace
steeda G-trac brace
steeda hd strut mounts
I figured im ok with shocks and struts right now an will probably end up buying them next month. But what do you guys think? is that a good list to start off with and all together its $600 from brenspeed.
