Lowering springs
Looking into Eibachs or Bmr Springs. What's everyone lowered on? Pics would be great. Looking to drop the front more than the rear.

I'm going BMR, have used their products before and they are good stuff. My 5.0 is dropped on their springs.

I have the Phastek ones, probably made by BMR which is probably made by someone else. It's a 1.5" drop but will not drop a MRC car by that much. It might have dropped it inch, maybe 1.25 at most.

Any rubbing issues? I assume you have to be very careful driving over speed bumps etc.. I purchased the same ones. Have yet to install them due to worrying about being able to park the car in a parking garage with steep inclines and pulling in and out of my driveway.

0 issues so far. Of course you do have to be careful on steep inclines, but you would have to do that anyway at stock height. The car drives pretty much the same as stock.

Need to edit my username. I had the 1le SS on order before I pulled the trigger on the Zl1.

That is awesome. Well I plan to lower mine sooner or later. It's a matter of making the time to do it or have a shop do it for me. A local shop quoted me $550-$650 to do the work...I'm not sure if that includes an alignment, but seems a little much to me.
