Default Lowering Springs

always a good idea right??..well somethin told me not to get them unless i had a new set of wheels...well would it hurt anything if i just got the lowering springs and rode around on em until i got my new set of wheels??...and mind u they have 2 sets... one is for about 1 - 1 1/2 inch and the other is just plus a inch..so its about 2.25 inches....the 1 inch is alot higher...its about 3 somethin..but the 2 inch is like 2 something

1.) Whoever told you that is an idiot

2.) 2 sets of what? You can lower your car anywhere from 1mm to 4 inches with the right parts.

For the record, I'm riding around on stock steelies and 2.75" drop.

Junk. I suggest you google "Suspension FAQ 2.0" and read it... multiple times.

A good (and properly done) drop will be in the $600 - $1400 range. Mine was $1200 in the end.

Pro-Kit? They are okay, not much of a drop. The benefit is that they're a quality spring that can be used with stock shocks.

I actually have a full set with 6k miles on them if you want them. They fit 94-97 4cyl
