Update! KSport coilovers! 10-10-2011
damn guys! all your setups look awesome! I just have one question for everyone. Is anyone else experiencing a rattling/clunking noise coming from the rear, changing sides at random. Originally it was the plate that mounts to the lower control arm coming loose. But i put a lock washer on both sides as per what ksport reccomend i do. that fixed the issue of the plates coming loose. now the noise is back, and the bolts and plates are all tight. I have checked everything, my shocks are tight, hubs are tight, lower arm bolts are tight. Im stumped, anyone else having this issue?
Look closely.. Wheel well in front is larger and about 2 inches higher then the rear... It's shaped differently...
Perhaps if this was an older car then that style would be more suiting. The types of older cars that use smaller wheels and hydraulics. Doing this on an import just looks funny but that's my opinion.
This height looks far better to me...

Whatever!!! When you get your set, you can do what you want... I just dont care what other people think anymore... I don't go by a style or look, I'm want ride height, and even throughout...
It may not be your style but I don't care... Go look at the rs7.. Only reason he is tucked is he put 20's on it... Didn't see anyone get on him about ride height or look.. And I wonder why I stay away from forums, it's not much of the opinions, is that everyone is an expert and think it has to look a certain way or it's gotta be this....
Got the same thing from a$$es about my Yakima rack... That they don't like the look of a rack on a tc... Well hello people it's not a look.. I use it daily to transport my bike to trails...
Peace.. I'm done ranting... Little crabby today

All cool dude dont let em get to you its your car and you can do what you want i think it looks good. Im used to it from being one of the 1st Cobalts to go the stance route you should of seen the hate i got on the forums lol.
ragingbull, forget about all the style do's and dont's, could you elaborate on any changes or issues in handling as a result of lowering the car at max? Have you noticed any characteristics that might need addressing such as increased understeer, body roll,etc?
It handles excellent.. I was having bad body roll at first which caused me to rub the fender at max turns, I upped the dampers to 19 and moved up the spring perch to tighten up the coil to have less roll.. Also after alignment and put the fronts at -2 camber turning s noe excellent with little or no rub..
As for the rear with it at full max dump any hard bump I hit bump stop.. Nothing crazy to worry about.. Patiently wait for A-RCA's for our tcs.
All in all it's a great suspension
