well thanks for the info.... I have heard strano springs are good to have and I want mine lowered cuz it's too high... plus i'm getting a different DD so I got a decision to make now lol
Strano's are good for pretty much everything. If you're leaning more towards strip only, you'll want coilovers.

to the OP, how much is your car lowered now(the springs rated)? Looks killer, is the ride real rigid or is it pretty decent?

Well, the fronts feel great. They are stiff but wont kill you when you're on a rough road. HOWEVER, the rears have seemed to instantly sag on me. They are now lower than they are in the pictures and they seemed to have lost they're stiffness. I don't know how that's possible but I'm going to toss in a 1/2" spacer on both rears and see if that helps. If not, then I'm pulling them and going with Strano or BMR rears.

guys, go with Ground Control adjustable setup. You can change the height to get it where you want it - and spec springs for what stiffness you are looking for.
really only $419 for a full coilover system?! that seems pretty cheap! does anyone know if this it for the whole system?!

Not surprised about the rear springs, I put on some pro kits and the right rear sagged pretty bad shortly after, besides that the rears were really soft, I purely hated the Eibach rears, the fronts are still on and I cut my stock rears to the desired height and they are ALOT stiffer than the eibachs, I really like them actually.

they are "coil-over sleeves" Basically you slip it over your shock/strut and then it allows you to adjust the height of the lower perch. Not as adjustable as a true-coil-over setup, but not a static spring either.
If you have limited suspension knowledge and limited time to learn, it's a good half-step,, but like any half step, you will want to go all the way eventually.

ok well point me in the right direction... because I want to go all the way not just half ass it lol so can you point me to some true coil-over setup and i'll start researching after I see what real coil-overs are thanks!
