BMR 1.4 inch lowering springs installed / 2010 SS2 Camaro
I took my car in for alignment and learned the camber couldn't be adjusted to my liking. So I installed the Ebach top camber bolts to the front struts. While I was under there I installed the BMR 1.4" lowering springs. I measured before and after. The springs actually give me 1.5" drop on all 4 wheels. I was impressed with the stance and the ride is better than I expected. I have been riding around a couple of weeks and havn't bottomed out or rubbed a speed bump yet. I would advise to slow to a crawl on speed bumps and park short on curbs and cement stops though just for safety. See pics below for before and after. The 1st is before and the last 3 are after.

Nice stance! That first pics of before reminds me of what JDP Motorsports said to me when they installed mine- "We'll take care of the lift kit that Chevy installed " lol!

Are there any "special" tools needed? Any words of advice on the install? This is my first Camaro/domestic. Thanks for any help.

Any of you guys have a problem when installing the BMR spring? I went to install mine last night and I cant get the spring to center itself on the top hat. The little washer that holds the bump stop is resting on one coil in the spring. Couple of people said it may need the weight of the tire and vehicle for it to align itself so I went ahead and installed both front springs.......Drove it to work today(10miles) and then going straight back home to get under her to see if the spring did settle or not. Anyone else have this problem?
