lowering just a little.....

[heatherc]

okay guys and gals..i want to lower just a little......i need to know if i need struts and springs or just springs and which brand should i get? and info provided will be helpful....<BR>thanx

Eibach pro-kits will only lower about an inch, still keep a good ride quality, and are a good quality spring.<P>Personally, i WOULD upgrade the struts, but I unwillingly will say you dont HAVE to. Tokico Blues or KYB GR2s would be good for your application.<BR> <A HREF="http://www.shox.com" TARGET=_blank>www.shox.com</A> should have the best prices.

i think H&R springs are one of the best!

H&R are the best . I have them on my car and I love them. Its lowered 1/3 front 1/5 in the rear and it look good on the M-x3.

i wonder if the oem struts will be ok without any problem after we put lowering springs on. also, how's the ride gonna be?

Brainless: some distributors are bound to still have them...call around<P>Kit996: they are "ok" but not recommended. And the ride will be bouncy with the oem pieces.
