yea. i asked a guy and he looked it up in his fancy lil book of his and he said the biggest u can put on a cobalt non-ss is 17. if u go 18 then will rub when turning too tightly.

personally ive been thinking about getting the pro-kit from eibach... anyone have any experience with these? i just dont want my car as low as the sportlines, but i want something that'll take away a lot of the body roll. i know the sportlines are lower, but i'd like to see a cobalt 2.2 with the pro-kit

BigTizzle903

i was thinkin that, but one reason i want springs is to get rid of the 4x4 status of my car. i wanted a pair of goldlines, but when i ordered they had just sold the last pair like an hr before me. they drop it like 1.5-1.75 inches. right in between. but no, so im gonna go with the ksports, cheaper and drop it a good amount.

thats completely retarded, were no different then the SS's on that aspect, and things like offset and tire size are going to play a huge roll as well, if i was you id never listen to that guy ever again

dont the balts have a torsion bar in the back? cant you just adjust that for a lower height?

i'd love to put springs on my ls but i dont trust myself to compress the springs and dont want to really pay a shop cause they charge a lot

is there anywhere on here where i can ask if someone in my area can do it and ill pay them or something?

BigTizzle903

do u have any friends that like cars? its not that difficult. and theres a how-to on here. thats what im doin when i get em. me n my friend are gonna put em in ourselves. prolly a good 2+ hrs of work tho. well worth it

Thatsit

there aren't too many kids in my school who like cars. i only know about two people who might but probably won't/can't help me. i might end up having to do it myself and rent a spring compressor.
does anyone know how much a realignment would cost?(btw)

BigTizzle903

i know eibach makes an alignment kit. and u can buy a spring compressor for like 20 bucks. u can find em cheap. u dnt need the expensive ones.

Thatsit

I was planning on using ss springs on my ls, would the eiback alignment kit still work?
(i dont really know what an alignment kit is...)

SpeedJunkies07LS

im sure it would , but the sportslines look the same as that last picture up there?

bobb_black_cobalt

i think you can rent them from auto zone or advanced.

I have SSC springs. I like4 the ride quality, its only bad on really bad bumps. They don't lower quite as low as the sportlines but it was exactly the drop i wanted.

here's a couple pics

BigTizzle903

idk. im startin to like ss/sc springs. but i think i might still got wit the ksports. worst case i take em off n get the ss/sc springs n sell the ksports

he is a pic of my 07 LT2 with the dropped on sportlines. im also runnin 18" ss/sc wheels with 215/35/18 up front and 215/45/18 tires in the rear with 1/4" spacers to set the wheels out a little. i currently have all the same size tires 215/35/18 but i dont have any current pix of it....



Here i went and took a current pic for ya.
