Nope, no rubbing with Sprints. Also, no need for a camber kit...enjoy

whats a camber kit??

It corrects the camber of the wheels when you lower the car. the camber is the angle of the tire compaired to perpendicular to the ground. This is how it should look ----> I, if it is out of camber due to lowering the car too much will look like this -----> /. Hope this helps.

it would be a good idea to get ur wheels aligned after u install the new shocks. i'd give it a couple of days for the setup to break in and then get an alignment.

Actually, the best coil to cut is the middle coil. If you cut the middle coil, you will get performance as good as Eibachs! Hehe...just kidding. Don't cut your springs. It's not worth it.

As for dropping your car even lower, keep in mind your ride will deteriorate considerably the lower you go.

I got my sprints for $145 shipped from Southwest Auto Works.

With Sprints how different is the ride from stock?

Can't decide between near stock H&Rs or lower, better appearence, but harsher sprints. BTW I'll have Koni's too.

Get the sprints! You will not regreat it. If you dont go low enough you will wish you had.

I am really close to ordering the sprint springs, do i need to get new shocks too? or no?

I would definitely get new shocks/struts if I was you, for two reasons. One., you struts are now 4 years old, and are getting 'tired'. Secondly, the stock struts were selected with a specific spring compression rate in mind. The Sprints are vastly different from the stock, and the strut will not last long if it has to 'deal' with this.

Thanks man, do you have any struts that you prefer, or a place where I could look to get them. Also, how much do you think this will run me about, can I install them myself? Thanks again.

Sonic

I believe that alot of people that put on the Sprints are putting on Konis. Try the Group Buy forum, or try www.tirerack.com or www.shox.com or one of the other webssites hosted by .org members.
