Lowering your CL
Ok, So I have read everything I could find on the search, but I am confused on some stuff. I would prefer just to do springs because I am poor as hell. How low can you go without having to worry about buying a camber kit. If you have to buy a camber kit to lower it any decent amount, which type of kit do you guys recommend, because I have seen several different types talked about. I know about the washer trick in the back but do you guys typically do anything else? I have gone through rims like a mofo on my car due to pot holes so I am wanting to stick with my 16s although I might up it to a set of 17s if I come across a good deal at some point. Bent three 18s on potholes and road titties and I am sick of it. Lemme know.

U can do the washer trick in the back, but you'll need a camber kit for the front, and you'll need it for "any deccent amount"

If you're interested, I have prokit springs that I can sell you. It's only about a 1.25-1.5" drop but it does improve handling, and the ride quality is near stock. With the prokit since its a mild drop it should be fine on your stock shocks, you wont blow them anytime soon, and also you wont need a camber kit. Anything lower than a prokit and you will need a camber kit, and you might blow your stock shocks like a month after putting on the springs, so it would be the cheapest route to go.. PM me if you're interested.

franchises you get to keep most of the money and send in a small percentage of money, you might be thinking of a corperate owned franchise, those cost less, but you also keep a small percentage and send in alot more of your profits
