Best spring to NOT lower the car??
I'd like to find a better set of springs than stock to eliminate a bit of the softness that remains in my suspension after a shock upgrade (see below for description). However, I cant lower the car that much due to long tube headers and the standard valving in the Bilsteins in back.
Can anyone recommend some decent springs I could put under the car that *wont* drop it that much? Should I go out and find some 1LE springs? Or maybe some SLP SS springs?
BTW: I've got a 2002 Z28 6 speed, I've got Koni single adjustables on the front and Bilstein HDs (standard valving) on the back. Its also got a 35 Suspension Tech front swaybar and a stock rear bar.
Thanks!

The 1LE springs would be a good choice. I really liked the way my 98 1LE rode compared to my friend's 98 Z28 and 2000 SS. My car always felt solid over undulations in the road and severe braking/acceleration whereas both his cars felt floaty.
I believe that my 97 WS6 came with 1LE springs from the factory, but I'm fairly certain that GM stopped putting 1LE springs in the SS/WS6 in late 99/early 2000.
