prokit is good but barely 1 inch drop. denpends on the roads and if you have lip kit. i still scrape my bumper sometimes on driveways with prokit and lip kit. cant imagine going any lower.

how far off the ground is it? i might have to wait til spring because around here the winter time can be unpredicitable....might just stick with the lip kit for now

its about 3.5-4 inches off the ground.. I suggest dropping it first man.. If you just got 17" rims it looks goofy as hell w/o a drop

lip kit lowers the car another 1/2 inch

only got one sticker on my car viper security...no stickers for my em2....one more question before you guys dropped your car did it feel weird driving on bigger tires? i feel like i m about to go offroading sometimes....makes me feel unstable at times

To me, once I dropped it that feeling went away.

also is it safe for me to just put the prokit springs on only

 
Rep Power: 812

no, cause stock shocks cant handle lower than stock spring height. you will just be bouncing all over cause the shocks dont work right.

 
Rep Power: 0

so i should get shocks as well right?
