I have a 2006 2.4L cobalt. I'm sure everyone is aware of the gap there is with the 17" rims. I want to lower it just so it looks more asthetic and don't want to hamper with ride quality at all. Any suggestions on how much of a drop i should go with and brands would be greatly appreciated. Emphasis on maintaining ride quality. Thanks for any suggestions.

 

Go with coil overs otherwise you will have a rough ride. no struts out yet either for the springs.

 

unless you are going with coilovers your ride will get stiff, but on the other hand with the lowering springs you will be able to corner and handle like a mf

 

Have you lowered your G5 yet? I'm curious to what it would set me back. I don't like the wheel gap in the rear.

 

I have the springs at home, Iam just waiting for some construction to be completed at my work before I do, I got the springs from Canuck motors sports for 200.00 and the lowering job and alignmentis 250.00

 

whoa whoa whoa back the train up, G5Mike did u say they have lowering springs and such to lower our Pursuit Gt's?

 

Dc Sport Strut Bar And Eibach Sportsline Spring!

 

theres lots of springs out for our cars, you jusr got to tell whoever ss/na 2.4, mention cobalt, because it seems if we want anything for our cars these companies list everthing under cobalt

 

actuaaly they are called myr springs, my shop who ordered them I will get the ordering info for you fri morning.

 

not to highjack a thread but Tiller yougoing to come out to our next meet in Jul.

 

G5mike so are you saying pretty much the Strut Bars and everything that is out for the Cobalt SS/na will probably/most likely fit in our cars?

 

the colbaltss/na is the the same as our pursuit gts

 

well i knew the engine was the same but i didnt think we could use the CAI's and crap that the Cobalt SS/na's use but thats awsome im gonna have to do me some shopping this weekend

 

while we're on the subject of lowering, can you put sportlines on a 2.4 without replacing shocks etc? so basicly can you just swap the springs and get an alignment and not have any probs?

 

I'm definately going to try and make it - whenever we decide to do it.

 

everthing is the same, I have theInjen intake and the catbach for the ss/na, and no you do not have to replace the shocks, you are going to have a harsher ride though because you are lowering it anywhere from an inch and half to two inches
