is there really any difference between the cheaper, affordable kits and the expensive kits? somebody told me the cheaper kits will have a rougher feel to it than the more expensive ones.. is this true? if so, will it really effect anything?

 

You get what you pay for.

Eibach Sportlines have been proven to be quality springs for the Cobalt.

 

do you happen to know the price of these?

 

I paid around $250 bucks for my Sportlines.

Best bang for the buck IMO. Best springs on the market for these cars.

 

i found the sportline springs for about 260, but its for the SS.. will it fit on my 2.2?

 

Yep! And they will give you an even bigger drop than the SS because the initial height is higher on the 2.2.

 

how does the pro-kit handle, and what are the drops for an ls/lt

 

Yes.

 

don't cheap out, you will kick yourself in the ass.

 

Eibach Sportlines...no other.

 

Pro kit doesn't drop a ls/lt that much around inch IIRC, but the car will handle a lot better from them.
