Spring Rates
--------------------
Front(kgf/mm,lbs/in)
3.6/201
Rear(kgf/mm,lbs/in)
4.8/269

Ride Height
-------------
Front(mm/inch)
-55/-2.2
Rear(mm/inch)
-41/-1.6


Questions:
-----------
1)Will camber bolts work to fix the alignment for a 2.2in drop or do I need to get camber plates?
2)Will the rear bottom out with a 1.6in drop and 269lbs./in. spring rate with only 2.5-people plus luggage?
3)Is a 2.2inch front drop with a Stillen aero front lip going to be a bish driving?
4)Any opinions on these Spring Rates(F/R: 201/269lbs./in.) being too soft for that drop?
5)Do these sound like more of an even drop compared to H&R and Eibachs?

Come on guys, I answer noob questions also, so don't hurt yourselves.

as for:

3)Is a 2.2inch front drop with a Stillen aero front lip going to be a bish driving?

first it depends on where you live...i *THINK* the stillen touring lip is lower than the aero but when i used to reside in socal, it wasnt that bad..but norcal is a lil harder to get around..but i still dont scrape that often, juss gotta watch out...but i think if i was another 0.5" lower it would be a little more difficult, not incredibly hard though

 

is it tein whos soon gonna offer true coilovers?

 

This quoted from their web site:

Based on original specification so that the installation is easy.

Great styling. Plus funner to drive.
The highest quality all brought to you at great prices.

Is it just me or does that sound like a kid wrote that?

"Funner to drive"

 

Not to me, but those with GC are running 3"+ drops so it may not be low enough for everyone. Too me that is a little too low, but I'm mostly concerned with an even drop. 1.8"-2.0" is what I would really like with about 1"-1.5" drop in the rear.

I agree the Stillen touring lip looks lower. Your Progress springs drop 1.7", right? Another half inch is going to be fun driving, eh?
