dropzone lowering springs

hey, i know i got some lower end springs but i figured they would at least drop my car. the back looks like it went down teh 2 inches it was supose to but the front looks high as ever still, anyone else use them?

sickmaxjt: i know EXACTLY what you are talkin about... i put dz springs on my 89 accord because i blew two of the stock springs on a pothole, and the dz springs i got for like 60 bucks shipped and that was a lot less than the oem replacements so i was like what the hell, why not. worst 60 bucks i ever spent, i had the EXACT same thing happen you are describing. ill try and dig up an old pic, its really freakin funny thinking back on it.

We all have known for a while that those springs sag, also you might want to take a look at the article about cutting springs, so you don't do a double oops and really screw things up.
