Pics of Progress lowering springs from cattman installed??

I was wondering if anyone has any pics of these springs installed on their 6th gen and if anyone has them how is the ride and how does the drop look?

KCMAXX,

Are you on the stock struts and shocks?? That drop looks good

Also, what if you hit a dip or something like that. Does it rub??

I want to do the progress springs but I want to see how my wheels will look first to see how much room is in back. ALo the Koni/AGX setup doesn't sound bad either. One more question KCmaxx,

How well does it do in the winter do you scrape or rub any when it snows and there is ice out?

It's more or less a garage queen. Even though I have a few sets of winter wheels/blizzaks.

It's a 3rd car. I wont drive it if the weathers bad.

I drove through winter this year and its wasn't bad at all even thou the weather in NY was pretty sh-ty. My brother has this same exact setup with 19" rims, didn't have any problems either.

Yeah but I want to end up like KCmaxx keeping mine garaged. I dont want snow to touch my max ever again. Been through one winter and hopefully that's the last one if I can help it.

well not to disprove you or call it a problem buh i'm running progress springs with gr2 struts agx shocks...and i broke my driver side splash guard on frozen ice...well just to be more detailed i crakced it. never broke off...not really too woried have stillen lip kit to put on in a lil while. but the drop is very nice not too low up front buh is lowwered so don't think that there isn't a difference and gives driver more control and better handling.

personal opinion: the pros def out way the cons bc there really isn't any major con, just personal dislikes. IE saggy rear
