What lowing springs to buy???

I'm looking at only a 1 in. drop due to my GFX.....i'm putting on 18 Z06's and was wondering what kind is the best now since i've been out of the whole modding thing for a couple of years. Or do i even need to lower my car after the 18's go on...i want to be able to go places w/o scrapping all the time....but im concerned about the gap b/t the fender well and the tire looking funny by not dropping it.


Thanks for the advice


does anyone know the going rate to put springs on versus me renting a spring compressor and doing it myself

-some sites to these springs as to where i can buy would be of help...i've forgotten all the sites i use to buy my mods at

I think the best springs are the original LG motorsports G2 supersprings. They are currently having a final GP on them before they discontinue them FOREVER. Give them a call ASAP before it ends andthere going for 229 shipped i believe. I put in for a set

Im not sure there arent to many otu there other than the BMRs that are advertised at 1 inch. Spend the extra and get aset of Ground Control springs, there pricey but the possiblities for tuning them are endless.
