Drop is different on SS's than LS's I do believe.... So they could be rating the drop on the SS instead of the LS.... someone please correct me if i'm wrong but that is what I got out of it when I was looking for mine...

It depend what type of stock suspenstion you have. 2.0, 2.5 is for an LS and LT submodels.
the 1.0, 1.3 are for the SS submodels

I have the sportlines on mine.. so you can look at my pics if you want to see what it will look like... I also bought mine from Turbo tech and was really satisfied the service so I'd recommend them but just my opinion.

It would all depend on your tire size and I have no idea that the biggest tire you could have on it.. my tires have no issues at all. If its possible try and get it as close to factory size as possible.. My tires are slightly bigger than stock when i'm showing 65 i'm doing 68..

Yes, as long as the "over all tire" is not taller....

Rim size has no factor in this

What do you mean right springs?

On a base model the sport lines lower 2.0/2.5" on the SS (which is already lower to begin with) lowers around 1/1.3"

Eibach only makes 1 sets of sportlines for the cobalt... Does not matter what engine or model you have, the sport line part number is 4.9938

If anything you just over paid at www.Tirerack.com, as we are cheaper, or will be cheaper as we price match.
