DropZone Sping Pictures On Sunfire

I think im going to get a set of DropZone springs, but i would like to see how a sunfire sits on them first..anyone have any pictures of their ride on DropZones? I'm also looking at RK Sports, but i like the sounds of the DropZone specs better...

Don't buy them. They're crap. Save up your money for a set of Eibachs or other quality springs.

And since you're looking for an aggressive drop, get some Konis or KYB AGX dampers as well.

Your diggen yourself a hole man. I have the dropzone and TRUST ME and others on here. They only break stuff. I have the pro kit and AGX's waiting for a few more weeks.

I'm not sure what brand RK Sport is selling these days but I'd trust them to be quality pieces.

What size are the tires you have now? You can read it off the sidewalls.

lol i may be dumb but im not that stupid....their 195/60/14's...the car had 195/70's on it when i got it, but it was really bouncy with them so i went with a tighter sidewall and it cured the bounce...there was only maybe 1/4-1/2 difference if that between the 2 different size tires..

heh. I knew there had to be some reason for your big wheel gap. There's a 1.5" difference in height between those two tires so that's adding 3/4" of gap between your tire and fender.

Dude... you're an ongoing source of amusement for me. I'm glad it's all being worked out though!

What you need to do is save up for some bigger wheels and tires that you'll be happy with. You can get some nice 17's with 225/45/17 tires and that'll fill up a good chunk of that gap. Then some Prokit springs will leave it looking really nice and totally drivable.

What are these "ride quality issues that all springs have" that you're speaking of?

What experience do you have with properly built suspensions?
