well if you are set on springs instead of coilovers. I say go with the sportlines, i had them on my cobalt. Made a nice difference in handling..made the ride rough as hell though.
Realistically, if you're wintering your car, stock suspension is going to give you the best result.Can I have a few opinions from you guys with Eibach springs installed. Pro-kit or Sportline? Just wanna lower a bit since it snows a whole lot here in winter. Also want that mean look as well. What other options do i have that would benefit me in winter. Your set up would be nice too both coils or springs.
I have the same kit here. Haven't brought myself to install it yet. SA streets suck, and I don't know if I'd wanna put up with scraping/dodging shit all the time.my eibach pro kit is a bit rougher than stock suspension and it is low. I don't drive it in the winter so i can't comment on that but I imagine it would be snowplowing all over town.
Really?Snow plowing? Last time I checked Etown plows there roads. Not the greatest job but it gets done. Don't let that be a factor.
Ming, I've been lowered on springs since I bought my Evo. GTWorx on Bilsteins to be exact. No problems during winter. Mine is a DD since it is a company car. I've been to FtMac twice and to Saskatoon 3 times. No problems.
Ya you guys are lucky you live in e-town... last year we only had the streets around our house plowed once last year. I had snow up to the bottom of my bumper on my chevy in my back alley and my truck has a 10" lift. There is no way people were getting around the residential areas in a car. This year being so mild and hardly any snow is a different story tho. I could probably still roller blade around town.Really?
You've never pulled into a parking lot and had snow covering your intercooler? I certainly have, and I'm not even lowered.
It's not impossible to drive during winter when lowered, it's just... Easier if you don't have to worry about it.
bit of an extreme example. not everyone parks their car in an unplowed alley that gets 10 ft of snow dumped on it lolYa you guys are lucky you live in e-town... last year we only had the streets around our house plowed once last year.

not extreme when you live in Canada... more like normal.bit of an extreme example. not everyone parks their car in an unplowed alley that gets 10 ft of snow dumped on it lol
Nope. I've never had snow cover my intercooler. Esp after last years big snow storm. The only thing I worry about in the winter is getting rock chips on my windshield.Really?
