Apex Motorsports Question

I am new to the Camaro5 forum, as I recently purchased a 2014 RS 2SS 1LE.

I am wanting to purchase some 1.25" drop springs, and after researching feedback on this forum I have narrowed my choice down to the BMR or the Pfadt springs. I tried calling Apex multiple times and I cannot get ahold of anyone. I left a message, but my call was never returned. Has anyone else experienced this, or do you guys normally reach them?

Are any of the vendors on this site offering sales on these products Memorial weekend?

Apex appears to have dropped off of the face of the earth. I'd suggest looking for a different vendor.

Hotchkis, 1"... settled at around 1.15". Perfect stance in my book.

I have the pfadt springs, they ride decent and the car is level front to rear.

Pfadt springs on my ZL1. Drop is a little over an inch. Ironically I purchased the springs from Apex in November of 2014.

I ordered my BMR 1" drop springs from JDP Motorsports (they're a sponsor on the forum here) on the 19th, and I already have them. Gave me the best price on them, too!

Give www.marylandspeed.com a chance. They have Camaro5 discounts and if you call them they might be able to help you out a little more. I have purchased many items from them over the years and would recommend them to anyone for anything they have listed on their site.
