Yes I have them...you're lookin at their spokesperson

They havnt even hit shelves yet...I've only had the springs for a couple weeks...I had to OK them, and then they got sent off to the powder coater..should be available in about a week according to Mark Habicht. I will let you know for sure when theyre available and how much

Don't Eibach Sportlines do the same as these? I think that the H&R springs give the most drop.

lowest springs are def. Tenzo-R's...i have the progress springs...they are a good drop and handle great. Sportlines are what the majority swears by. Tenzo-R's def. drop the most. Well, next to full coilovers and air ride.

Yea the Tenzo's are LOOOWWW...They ride pretty good but once the struts are gone you can wave bye bye to the smooth ride. They def look good though...Only thing is my heat shield on my exhaust is just kinda hanging now from dragging it on stuff.

that is one sweet looking car! I think i'm going to have to see about trading mine in for a white 2.4.

I'm usually not a fan of the tenzo's, they do, without a doubt, have the most drop in any spring out there. too much in my opinion.

I would think twice before lowering too much. I just have the ssc's, some of the least drop out there, and with a gmpp exhaust i still scrape the resonator on some speed bumps. and yes, its tucked up about as tight as i can get it without touching anything. If i were any lower I don't think i could have the exhaust I have.

Airride.... 3rd balt with bags that im aware of but there are more now.... id reccomend easy street air ... my layout is all digital on an LCD not toggles like most and im running dual compressors
Its actully out of the Desired customs cobalt which i believe was the 2nd bagged.... in this older pic u can see its actully still painted to match their balt but its diff now (theirs was the right hand drive cobalt)



airride is such a nice ride... i put 70 miles a day on my car and love it.... easy street air is best for an everyday driver
