    GRound Control VS Sprint Extreme

    Okay, I want to know what U guyz think between getting Ground Control coilovers AND Sprint Extreme spring (F:3.25/R:3.00 drop). I currently have AGX shocks and plan on coupling them with the GC or Extreme.
    13
    Sprint Extreme spring (F3.25/R3.00) matted to AGX
    69.23%
    9
    Ground Control coilovers matted to AGX
    30.77%
    4

                The sprint website or check local performance shops/warehouses. They can prob get it for you if not order it if they dont have it.

                  The "size" of the spring has nothing to do with how they'll make your car ride, it's all in the spring rate...

                  That said, if you're concerned with the car being low as possible on a certain spring while having damping adjustibility, I'd spring the extra $50 on Illuminas. AGX's are pretty notorious for raising the car a little bit. If adjustible damping isn't a concern, you can get away with the Extremes on stockish shocks...kmart has had that setup for a while...

                    I said above that I already have the AGX. I just want to ditch the springs I actualy have (2.25 drop) cuz it not low enough.

                      Yeah, I've been leaning towards the Extreme since the begining but I wanted to hear from other persons too.
                      Definitely, I know that the GC may be bouncier than the extreme.

                        will running sprint extremes on Kyb AGX's damage the AGX's?....i know they recommend only going down 2 inches ..i know the extremes are 3 inches..

                          I don't know from personal experience but from what I've read they probably will. You should sell the AGX's and go up to Illuminas...

                              Your comparing apples to pears. You cant compare coilovers to Springs. Chances are they dont even have the same spring rate. GCs you can get any custom spring rate you want. Any spring/coilover will ride totally different with every single difference shock out there.

                              I guess your not racing so it doesnt matter.

                              Plus how can you not get it even? do you not know how to use a tape measurer? If youve done your research you will know that every 360 degree turn on the Gcs equals 1/8th.

                              I just got my Ground controls, 400lbs Front 425Lbs rear, waiting on my koni yellows to come in. Im racing.
