Thumbs up DMS spring installed

Today, I had my springs installed. What a drop, but its great. Haven't really pushed the car yet becuase I want the springs to settle. So far the car takes bumps like a champ and cornering is real tight. The looks of the car are spectacular IMO. I will try and get before and after pics up, as soon as I can get a free server to post them on. DMS is the way to go!


Those with DMS springs how much did the car lower once settled, or do these springs settle at all? I have about an 1 and a 16th drop all around. LS1 guys but other pics or comments more than welcomed!

I have some and I liked them so much I wrote a quick testimonial about them.

You can read it here:

So far, I am 100% happy with them.

Thanks for the good words all! Because of you people are getting to know more and more about our springs. Spread the word so others can benefit as well

I just installed my springs and adjustable PHB last week and took the car to my monthly autocross. This month was a road course too. They brought me to yet another victory. They still allowed more body roll than I expected. But I have a 35mm sway bar in the mail that will fix that. It's actually good that they allow some body roll otherwise they'd be too harsh for daily driving. They are plenty soft around town and plenty tight for moderately serious racers too. Perfect!

I have an SS with the level 2 Bilstein suspension. Do I need to do anything other than change to the DMS springs here? Do I need to fiddle with the shocks, bushings, etc., or just swap the springs? Thanks.

I am running stock struts and shocks on my Trans Am and just the springs are great. No need for bushings or such. Just LCA's and relocation brackets are recommended. I will have to order me some when i get more $$$$. Go with DMS springs for sure, you won't complain, because you'll love them.
