i finally put in the Sprint springs in my car... it does not lower it too much.... u can barely tell, however the spring was alot shorter than the stock one.... the ride is like stock almost... but i dont know if that is cause i have AGX adjustable.... i started setting the front on 2 out of 1 softest- 4 hardest, and the rears at 5 out of 1-8 (soft to hard)... it felt like stock.... then i changed it to 3 and 7... now i can fell the lttle bumps and some of them hurt but it is not too stiff like other springs i been in.....
i somehow need to take a pic for u all to see the height....
i dont bottom out like my friend's cars when they pull in my driveway (my driveway is up a curb that is like 2 to 2 1/2 inches high)
So am i the first on the forum to put them in?
PLUS I LOVE MY CROSS DRILLED ROTORS WITH metalic pads

yep <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('> but hey. you're car will be still lower in between that time (i guess depending on how low you went) but 2 months will be at it's very lowest. if you got the springs that dropped it 2 inches, after a month it may drop an inch already.

and spacers may help too (visually). even after the 2&quot; drop, it seems there is some fender gap, not bad though. i'm getting the wheels to stick out 1/8 inch more in the front and 1/4 more in the back.
