Lowering 2010 Cobalt SS

Ive done the reading around the site and noticed alot of you are liking the Pedders Springs

I wanna eliminate some of the wheel gap on my 2010

Don't wanna hurt the stock struts as much as possible and also don't wanna be bouncing around

Car won't be winter driven and is used at the Drag Strip

I would also like to try a few lapping events

Would you go with the Pedder Springs?

Can you post some of your TCs with Pedder Springs?

Thanks

pedders no questions asked. i had h&r springs on my car before and the ride sucked and it didnt handle better then stock on the lnf struts. drop looked great BUT believe me wasent worth the handeling.

in all honesty you need to figure out.....do i want a good drop or do i want bad@$$ handeling.......badass drop but crap handeling will be the h&r springs, eibach sportlines, etc etc. badass handeling with a minimal drop will be pedders(decent drop) or the eibach pro kit(barely any drop) and still wont upgrade handeling to what the pedders is.

if you want to spend some extra cash and get a really good drop and handeling......stance or hsd coilovers.

what do you think of the stance????

^^^ What are you dropped on?

Im more worried about handling without bouncing around

Then the removal of some of the wheel gap would be nice

I just put Pedders on and they HANDLE baby! Lowered modestly, about 1" front and 3/4" rear..that's good. The ride is a bit siffer for sure..but ROCK SOLID and no BOUNCE. I love em.
