Hi, i wanted to lower my car, should i just get a new set of springs or go with the shock also, cause i heard that if you only use a aftermarket spring to lower the car, the original shock will not work that well with the springs, and should i added the struct bar as well, cause it will put better handling for the car, pls give any suggestion, thx in advance.

I would go for struts too because if you drop your car too low your factory shocks will blow. Go with Konis struts and Eibach or Neuspeed springs. Talk to Rob at Tornactive he'll give you a good price.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

Dude, I have had my Goldline Springs on for approx. 3 weeks now, and both of my front struts are blown...the MacPhersons in the front
will probably go first, then the rear.....needless to say, i will be replacing all four very soon...
