You can go just as low with a better setup for the same amount of money. I wouldn't buy anything suspension-wise from skunk2 except the springs and the full coilovers. Their individual dampers, I have heard nothing good about.

what do you suggest?

Soft.

The way I look at it is to pick springs that give the drop and spring rate you want, then match the shocks appropriately.

2 inch drop isnt much if you want that dumped look(what im goin for)
i have ground control coilovers and im tuckin the front tires
im not sure of how much a drop it is but i still have room to lower more
they ride good,not as good as stock but way better than some cars i been in

no you dont
ask anyone on here how cut springs ride.....bouncy all the time
ive rode in 2 cars with cut springs and its a nonstop bounce down the road
one of those cars wrecked shortly after he cut his
coilovers are cheap anyways, i have ground control coilover sleeves
they are stiffer than cut springs and adjustable
no body roll around turns and handling is amazing
the back bounces a bit but its nothing like a cut spring bounce

Please PLEASE pL34ZZZ don't cut your stock springs.

Why?

Cause it's writing yourself a deathwish.

Ok, maybe blown out of proportion. It's not safe. So I recommend HIGHLY against it.

To the OP: I plan on running S-techs. Haven't decided on the shock/struts in combination with them yet, but look into them as well. Can't hurt.

And the bounce can be fixed with proper shocks.


Definitely don't cut your springs.

Like others have said, do not cut your springs. Its not safe and just plain dumb.

I purchased some S-Techs from a forum member and I'm coupling them with Drop Zone shocks. I haven't put them on yet but when I do I will post pics.
