ehich lowering springs would be best on a 2000 sunfire with stock struts? please e-mail me at mike87stang@hotmail.com

none. stock struts aren't meant for lowered applications. if you had read the FAQ at the top, you would have found that out and wouldn't have made this tragic post

have a good one

How many more posts about stock struts are there going to be this week?


(99 - Sunfire - Red - 2200)(95 - Cavalier z24 - Purple - 2.3 quad four)

Really, I would think an Eibach pro-kit wouldn't hurt the factory struts a whole lot, but the sportlines would ruin them fast.

Yes they would harm the stock struts, Stock struts are NOT made for lowering springs, lowering springs are stiffer then stock springs and the stock strut cannot handle the stiffness, also the stock struts will bottom out and blow. Causing a very bad ride and the cost of new struts so it's not worth it really, you might as well spend out the money to start with because you'll end up paying for it in the end.

Fronts can handle it for a while, rear not even an option. And when I say the fronts can handle it....I mean it is drivable...not saying it is a nice ride by any means.
