prokit vs aspec

Both say they drop the car 1 inche. Anyone know which will give better ride and handling? Of course the prokit with a good strut.

Are you looking for just a little sportier feel, or the lowered look? I have aspec...came with the car...just ordered tein ss....no matter how old I am, I can't get over the lowering bug. Cars look ok stock...but they look SWEET lowered!

I thought A-spec lowered 3/4"?. Ride and handling are about the same with stock shocks. Depending on what shocks you pair the eibach springs with. Koni yellow+eibach > a-spec......

If you already have a-spec then just get some koni yellows, they can give you another 1/2" or more drop.

the drops are not the same. a-spec will drop about .75" with no sag. aftermarket springs like prokit will drop a little more than 1" cus it will sag a little bit as it breaks in.

They are shocks but they have different perches on them, so you can pair them with springs and use different perch levels and in turn get extra drop out of the whole set-up. i hope that makes sense
