I'm looking to lower it an inch. I'm leaning towards the BMR springs but I'm open to suggestions. Thanks

I'm very pleased with the DMS springs I have...although i have no basis for comparison, so I cant "reccomend" them over any other brand...but Eric certainly has the best prices on springs that I've found so far. The 4 springs all worked well togther, as in equal lowering, good stance, decent ride quality, no rattles, noises etc. Overall lowering was ~1.0", but depending on what else you do (shocks, bushings, LCA's etc) ride height might be +/-0.25" from that. I do not have long tubes & other than my front plastic air damn extension, nothing drags.

Hypercoils if you can find them anymore! I have them on mine and LOVE em! Those with the SLP Bilstiens make a great spring/shock combo in my opinion!

I have BMR on my car, and I'm really liking them so far. The ride quality is was I expected with 18" wheels. And the drop was just right. At first I wanted more, but the car settled now and I really like how it looks. Here are a few before and after pictures.

Before:

After:

thanks for the pics. Your car is the perfect height, not to low but its just a subtle change from stock. I just ordered the BMR springs and sway bars. Getting new shocks too. Can't wait to get it all installed! --Rob
