If you have read my suspension problems help! thread...i am having big problems with my suspension and have now narrowed my replacement choices to either a eibach prokit or ground controls...
what do u guys think??
I want someonething thats not going to rub tires even with a full load of people in the car. Right now under hard cornering it rubs with just me in the car!
thanks

well if you dont want it to rub eibach will definatly not. I think they only lower it like 1.5 in so they wont rub. I think ground controls are coil overs arent they?? If so then they can be adjusted. Ive got eibach's but they arent on right now. They are good though

When you order GC's, you spec the spring rates and choose what shocks they go on, so whether or not they have a bad ride is up to you.

about the prokits...there should be no rubbing whatsoever even under a full load right? thats what i am looking for...
btw, what is there any advantage/disadvantage to putting the v6 application on my car instead of the 4cyl application?

thanks

The Prokits probably won't rub unless you have 5 linebackers in your car and a trunk full of luggage.

You'll end up with more understeer and a higher front end if you put the 3.0 springs in a 2.2/2.3. The 3.0 needs stiffer front springs to counter the extra weight of the engine. The lighter 4 cyl cars won't be able to compress the springs as much, and in cornering, the front tires will be doing more work because of the stiffer springs and you'll end up with more understeer.

They probably forgot to install the bump stop thats why u rub to much plus your are to low.

IF u want go with NEUSPEED SPORT SPRINGS and BECTECS STRUTS. I have them and i ride stock down 3 inches no rubbing at all.

The struts have a coil over and u could lower and heighten as u wish

holla at me i can give your the e mail address to the guy who sells them

The bumpstops aren't going to help prevent any rub... and if they do, then you've got bigger problems because that means that you only have an inch or so of suspension travel.

Hey what exactly do i have to do when i install springs as far as the bump stops go?

CLUofI

if you install the prokits, it gives you instructions for shortening the bump stops, i think they needed to be shorted by about an inch
