    looking for a 50/50 drop

    im thinking about running either h&r race springs, IE3s, or eibach pros with billy sports. which one will give me the most aggressive stance without too much rake. i want to keep as much of a 50/50 look as i can. btw i am running 14" basketweeves with 195s. please post your opinions

    h&r race, bilstein sports with richardkeith drop hats. youll be tucking rear and maybe tucking slightly/flush front. thats what i run and i love it.

      without the drophats how much rake was in your stance? how is handling as well? fairly stiff id assume.

        handling is awesome. about as stiff as i would go for a semi DD. the drophats are worth it dude. its like a .5-.6 inch difference.

            and by the way, eibachs are retarded soft. i wouldnt even consider them if you want handling over comfort. theyre pretty much the same as cut stockies imo.

              no drop hats are for the front only. install is easy once you have the front suspension apart, and it comes apart anyway to install springs and shocks.

                oh really. well thanks a bunch, i was really considering them. after reading up im going with the h&r i think. it seems to be everyones favorite. and no i do not care much about comfort

                        still stiff enough for track weekends you would agree though right?

                              true that, nothing like throwing something on and taking it out after. makes it that much better.
