Let's see the pics of your lowered 2.2/2.4 .
I searched and couln't find many pics, i want to compare the drops of different springs, i put on a set of Tenzo's and I'm very happy with the front drop but the rear, i can still fist it, much better then stock but still looks too high. i'm asking for anyone with a lowered 2.2 to post pics, please specify spings, (claimed) drop, tires.. i'll start

SPRINGS: Tenzo R GF2
DROP: 2"/F 2.5"/R
TIRES" 35/18

 

SSC Springs w/ 17's

 

Mines the same as above.

 

this kid just crashed his car. hes got a thread already started. its before this one though??

 

springs havnt completely settled yet. pics are from about 2 or 3 days after install so its gonna go down a little more

eibach sportlines
205/40/17

 

this cant be from stock ss springs. i was told only .5 drop from them. this looks like 1.5 or so. it might be due to the 17s too, i only have 16s.

i have 07 g5 like the lt, will i see this much drop if i go stock ss springs. im in need of a serious drop but dont want to pay 300 for eibach.


thanks

 

it says above his pic that they are ssc springs. not ss/sc springs. I have gotten it confused before too.

 

Superior Sport Chassis Springs. They are a tad bit softer than Sportlines.

 

i think if you get a 40/18 instead of 35/18 tire you will be more satisfied. thats my opinion.

 

mkulrey, those look amazing

so doing some research SSC ar ethe same company as Canuck Motorsports? i almost bought them but went with Tenzo's beacuse of the name and price. if i change my wheels to 40 and get 19's it should look amazing, my tires are too low pro and don't fill the well enough.



yea thats why i said posttires so we can compare

you eard right, thhere's not much of a drop with SS/SC stock springs, my wheels really tke away from the justice of the Tenzo's, I recommend them, I paid $150 shipped which is a decent price cut compared to the eibach sportlines, also look into the SSC / Canuck Motorsports, they're suppose to be the same springs and If I remember they were cheaper then Eibachs, but after pric esearching I went with the Tenzo's a lot of people have them and are happy.

the canuck motorsports / SSC springs are $211 shipped, that's why i went with Tenzos for $150 shipped

 

oh lmao didnt know there was a difference. was about to jump on a sale on ss/sc springs.

you have link to those springs for 150? thats not a bad price at all for them. they do the same drop as the ssc springs uptop? im in need of a good drop, just dont want to pay out the ass for them.

Thanks

 

look at the link in my sig for COTM.

 

Reading > you. SSC not SS/SC.

O.O free shipping right now too 118 flat price. states 2 inch drop in front, 2.5 in back. same as the eibach.

and cons though from these compared to the eibach? smoother ride?

Tenzos like to bounce from what I have heard... I would of gone with the SSCs but i'm biased

http://www.g5club.net/forum/showthread.php?t=3711

 

stock ride height

 

the back is too high on those, and the front is too high on mine. lol ssc on the front and sportlines on the back

 

Yeah IIRC sportlines had a bigger drop for the rear, and they still looked high.

 

heres mine
Ksport springs(2.0fr-2.5rr)but i cut half a coil up front so 2.5 all around

 

Uhhh

 

Lower now that they have settled in.
