I know there are many threads on the subject of springs and I have been through most of them. Just wondering if there are any pictures of the 2.4 on SSC springs, or any other springs for that matter. Most of the pics in existing threads are of the SS/SC or SS/TC. I forgot to ask, how great are the advantages of strut tower braces on the Cobalt?

 

They sit basically the same i'm pretty sure...

 

not mine

 

Yeah but the detail oriented person in me (read obsessive compulsive) just has to see it with the body of a 2.4

like that, perfect

 

that picture posted above is mine. and that was a few weeks after install. they have settled quite a bit more and i now sit just a tad lower then a ss/sc. i will sit quite a bit lower once i put on my tenzo r springs

 

Are you running stock struts and if so are they holding up well?

 

yup stock struts and shocks. the whole thing has held up great, i just want lower which is why i went with the tenzo's. the only thing i noticed and its not just the ssc's is a clunk from the right rear. nobody has really figured it out though.

 

yeah i have a coupe let my upload them. one sec.

 

Is there really about a 1.5" drop with the SSC springs? I am looking to get a nice medium drop for every day driving and Autocrossing in the summer. I have never heard of the clunk, is it loud?

 

its not bad when you got the music at a decent level and yes there is about a 1.5" drop. for every day driving they are a great drop. still have to be careful over speed bumps and drive ways but i never had a problem bottoming out on our roads

 

here they are:

 

SSC is probably the best spring for the money. They keep a nice raked stance. Not bouncy like sportlines or tenzos.

 

Perfect, thank you!

 

I forgot to mention that, I want to keep the raked stance you speak of so thanks for letting me know. For me personally, I do not want the car to be leveled out.

 

Hope your right haha, mine go on either tomorrow or Friday

 

Wanna see a SS/TC with fully settled SSCs?

Your car's gonna look awesome Godly

 

That looks sick, exact drop i'm hoping for, Mine should settle pretty quick since I bought them used haha, from blown06SS or something like that? haha 1500 Miles on them.

and thanks : I believe so to since that fucken wings gone now

 

Tommy, that really shows how the SSC springs will not drop the rear end down lower, which is what I am trying to stay away from. Thanks for posting and nice clean TC.

 

No problem, it's a lot easier to see the drop with the camera level with the car and not eye level.

 

Looks sick, can't wait untill I get my SSC Springs soon!

 

You'll make the 3rd White SS/TC on SSC's that I know of :

 

if you want a good idea on the front height, take a pop can and put it under the lowest part of the side skirt. on ssc's the can will just fit under.

 

Will a beer can work? Just kidding, thanks for the help. I hope to get some springs installed soon, tired of the 4x4 satance.

 

Headlights look great, is that rattle canned?
