Raised my Lanos with Lowering Springs!! (PICS!!!)

Post by AcingTeam »

Yea!!

Finally, I have been waiting for it for soooo long. For those of you who don't know, I had cut springs... it was way too low. Now after installing the Eibach springs, my back got raised approx. 0.5" and front approx 1". The car handles MUCH better, doesn't bounce, takes corners very aggressively... and most importantly it still looks lowered!! Just not as slammed as it was.
So, I would recommend Eibach springs to anyone, they're great!
It doesn't feel like I'm sitting on the ground anymore ;)

Hehe, will post pics later... it's too dark now.

OH!!! And it only costed me $200 cash... for installation + allignment!!

Exactly the point I was trying to make. But it doesn't look that bad now either... it's lowered 1.2" all around.
