my car looks just like your car. i got a gle so the wheels are diff. i couldn't wait so 2 days ago i install. the apex springs. it drop the front 1.75" and 1.5" at the rear. the car drives alot better but i will change the shocks in the future. the rear is good but the front bounces alittle when you go on bad roads. my front shocks are shot. saving money for koni. the car looks and drives great. i'm waiting for my stillen front lip and oil cap.

most of the time i'm in the turnpike i run between 65 & 90 mph. with no problem. i just inst. the autometer air/fuel & volt meters in my car, my car is stock but it feels like the goes faster because of less air under the car. the air/fuel meter marks lean only when gas pedal is floored. ilive in jersey city we have no back roads here only highway.

That's not a bad price installed. I'm still wondering how they handle compared to the other springs. Guess I'll just have to buy them and find out.

Hey 97GLES

I have those springs in my garage, waiting to be installed. I am still not sure though. Do you have any problems with the ride height? Have you scraped any speed bumps or anything like that? Thats my biggest concern......

my front shocks not to good but my car does not bottom out, just waiting for some cash to inst. new shocks. apex are just like the h&r springs, but you save some money with the apex. i'll give anybody around the area a ride in my car before you buy any springs. in the city or the highway. any ? email me
