    I am thinking of installing some lowering springs on my LT but I have some questions before I commit. I am looking at some 2" F and 2.25" R lowering springs by D2 Racing. My questions are if I will need to get the car aligned after installing. Likewise, will lowering the car 2" put unnecessary...

    Hey everyone. I just installed new lower control arms and decided to lower the car as well. I go the Megan Racing ones and when I installed them, I had some issues.

    Fe-5's or Koni Yellows? This winter pretty much toasted my suspension all the way around so I am upgrading EVERYTHING in a month or so. Just wondering if there is enough of a benefit of Koni yellows over the Fe-5's from CED to justify the price jump. For springs I am going with B&G's.

    Michigan, Winter, and Switching to Stock Springs? Hey Guys, I'm looking at getting some K Sport or Eibach lowering springs this summer, but my dad is being tough about it, because the car is under his name, and I don't really have a job to pay off my own car and insurance. So he sounds willing...
  11. Suspension/Wheels/Brakes/Tires
    First of all I'm new here. I don't know if all SS's just ride rough or it's just mine, but when I go over bumps especially at highway speed on corners, the back end seems to want to swing over and it worries me. Is there something wrong with my suspension or are all SS's like this? The car info...

    After taking off my lowering springs I got my car aligned at Firestone and even though they have done a great job in the past it seems to still pull a little to the right. Could this be because I left the camber kit on my car and I need to swap that out for the stock bolts? Or do you think...
