Looks like I'll be dropping the pop tart as my first mod. I've been looking around and see mostly people are using:

TRD's 1.5" drop
Eibach Sportlines
Hi Techs
Df210's

Anyone let me know pro's and con's to these along with which is preferred or if you know of others let me know please. PICS WOULD BE GREAT GIVE ME SOME RIM IDEAS AS WELL

 

What are u after? Mild drop? Like 1"-1.5"?

Or 2"+ drop?

 

i had a set of trd's for over a year and loved them, but wanted to go lower. i picked up a set of df210's about a month ago and am more happy than ever before. i would go with df's if you want to go low and have great quality at a decent price. if you dont want a big drop then look at the nf's.

 

^^^^ thanks xb4me


Based on the pics I've seen looking at a mild drop. Not looking for anything slammed to the ground. Just a clean look prolly looking at throwing 17 or 18's on it. Still getting back into the import world. I just traded in my 06f150 and before that I had a 05 cobalt ss so I'm slowly getting back into the import world.

 

My hotchkis springs (which are for sale) provided a GREAT looking drop, and an increase in handling.

There is a picture of them on my car with 16's in my for sale thread.

"Thanks for your message.

Yes, the 2009 xB shark fin is compatible with your 2012 as the fitment is the same.

Cheers,
Arthur"

 

I had TRD springs and thought it was okay, but I'm running hotchkis springs now and I like it a lot better. It is a stiffer and lower ride for sure.

 

Thanks for finding out for me toaster
