LoTek Springs
Lowering my SS today with LoTek springs, the front will drop 2 inches and the rear 2.25 inches.

I ended up getting the eibach pro kit, and I'm rather disappointed with the drop, or lack of. I wish I had taken before and after pictures but sadly I didn't. it really just looks like they dropped the rear a little so its more level with the front. what springs should I get next? my original idea of b&gs? or..?
I'll upload a picture of my car when I get a chance and figure out how to. haha

If you are looking for a slammed drop go with the b&g's, my picture before and after speaks for it self. I can't complain about the ride either.

If you wanna control the drop entirely, coils.

I just ordered a set of them today. They're offering $25 off because of spring, and there is a coupon code of: RMOC10 which is another 10% off.

I read alot of review, and alot of people say they ride really nice, and give the car a good drop. Someone on here posted a picture of their SS/TC with them, and IMO they look perfect drop wise.
