Lowering with 315's on the back ok? Which springs?
I wanna lower my 94 Z. If I have 315's on the back, which springs will be ok for the drop? BMR, DMS, Eibach...etc. I just drive on the street too. Any advice?

Thanks. I've been looking at their springs and just was curious to see what everyone else's opinion was.

Yea, trust me on this one, I've tried Eibach, way too low, Hypercoils, still too low, ground control with the adjusters, worked but didn't like the way the perches sat on the axle (had some movement) although I loved the linear 145lb spring rate. The DMS are perfect and have a slightly higher spring rate than the Eibachs and put, my car at least, at the perfect height. I know some say the DMS rears sit high, mine are perfect, right at 27" with a full tank of gas...

We have our springs on tons of F-bodies running 315's. One of our project F-bodies has 19" rims with 305's in the back..no problems.

Remove the rear isolator to even out the ride
