Stance gr+ coilovers - lowest drop - best performance!!!
STANCE GR+ COILOVERS for the 05+ C0BALT!!!
FINALLY OUT AND - UPDATED, TESTED, READY FOR THE COMMUNITY!!!
Per our initial prototype and discussion started back in February of 2009, FOUND HERE CLICK, the coilovers are finally ready for you guys to exclusively enjoy only through Cobaltss.net.
Along with some local help, we had a great involvement on this forum in the help of develoing this set. I am very confident this is the best suspension system for the Chevy Cobalt, and I am happy to bring it here.
Thank you redssna, slowswap....and yes, Maven.....and many many more members for all the help and support we received trying to run this project with Stance.

TIPS and NOTES on tuning and installation.
Front - Tighten the lower spring collars by hand until the main spring doesn't move up or down. You don't need to preload the springs.
Tightened the collars with the supplied wrench. Use the lower bracket to adjust the height. You can start by adjusting the coilovers about 4"
shorter than the stock strut.
Rear - Install the spring and the adjustable perch first. Don't install the damper yet. Adjust the perch and drop the car on the ground until you have the desired ride height. Than lift the rear end up until spring is loose. Jack up the rear arm until the spring is compressed about 1/2". Than adjust the damper and install. This will prevent the spring from moving, making noise at full extension.
Damper adjustment - Turn the clicker clockwise until it stops, do not force past! Turn back 8 clicks. This is your "0" point, aka sweetspot. The dampers have huge range of adjustment that you can actually feel with each click.
General tuning tips -
Understeer - Correct by Soften the front, stiffen the rear.
Oversteer - Correct by Stiffen the front, soften the rear.
Enjoy!

These things will grip forever on a road course. Like most coilovers, they are a little rough on the streets if you live in an area with bad pot holes. Just got to watch when you're driving. But the grip that these things will provide is just unreal. Matt's car three wheels most anytime pulling in and out of driveways.
