Everyone talking down on any other spring other than yyz can leave lol because SSC and H&R are both reputable springs.

As for my car I put it on jacks to check everything out and discovered 2 things.. I have a tear in my brand new CV boot (**** my life I just replaced it a month ago) and my control arm bushings were WASTED tk the point where the center sleeve fell out of them as soon as I pulled them out. There was a quarter inch gap on all sides of the center sleeve allowing the control arm to go up and down smacking the subframe over even the smallest bumps. Pressed in new bushings and wala wayyy quieter.

I was not crazy I know how lowered cars ride and I'm really used to it but something wasnt right and I knew that. And trust me I know how to "drive a lowered car" lol. Glad everything is figured out tho and if anyone else has a decent amount of miles on stock bushings check them because I hear they go bad quickly and if they get to the point of mine you will definetly notice it when you replace them.

Thanks for everyone's input besides those saying all springs other than yyz suck.

 

I mentioned SS/TC springs.... so ill stick around....

 

H&R on the Cobalt ride like ass.... Dont kid yourself man.

Maybe they are decent on other models, but not so much on Cobalts.

My car rides great with SS/TC struts, springs, and koni shocks.

 

Facts are facts, any aftermarket spring does not have the correct rate and there for allow for binding. You bitched about ride quality, and then claim you can drive a lowered car and bitch about hitting a bump and cracking your windshield. So 1+1=you can't drive a lowered car and came to the forums to bitch, grow up, if you want ride quality go to SS/TC or YYZs, if you want low then deal with the shitty ride quality. This is not an Audi or VW where H&R will actually spend money on development because they know they'll make the money make since most owners don't even blink at spending 2k on coils, cobalt owners bitch about spending 1.5k on coils

 

Did you not read my post about my bushings being wasted and slamming my subframe whenever my wheel traveled and after i replaced them it cleared everything up and it rides normal now? Lol i was bitching because i knew something wasnt right.. i've ridden in and driven lowered cars before and they were fine. Obviously they are going to be bouncy but slamming on every bump is not normal, which is why after checking everything out i found out my control arm bushings were wasted. So 1+1=my car wouldnt have broken a windshield if my bushings were in working order.
