Dude, I'd say springs, but you drive an SS. So the SSC springs would not be much of a drop. they drop the 2.2's about an 1.5" on both front and back (check suspension sticky) and I believe all it will really do is drop your rear about .5"

Springs are prob the better of two options, but not the SSC springs for a SS
