Lowering Solution for Koni's, springs, coilovers, and any thing else
Save your money and get Air ride ( Cylinders ) you can roll in the winter, drop it to your needs, and it only costs $ 2500-3500. i mean if you think about it most of you have spend $3000 on your car in the first year you had it. Air ride gives a stiff ride but better than and shock, strut & spring setup.

Rep Power: 392 i think its more like 1500-2500 for our cars since its so light and not as much modification is needed on our cars compared to trucks. but ya i still dont see your reasoning as to why its better. i wanted to lower my car and decided on springs. total cost, 210... this is nothing compared to 2000. and yes most might spend 3000 on the first year but then we wouldnt have the things we got with the 3000 if we did go with air suspension. cause i know instead of getting air ride i could get rims and a system and those are two things i rather have more.

Rep Power: 0 I don't like the fact that you have to cut the sheet metal on the front struts to accomodate the air line. You could never go back to stock after that!

At least with konis, your cutting the strut, not the mount on the car itself![hr]

Rep Power: 0 It's the design of the air struts though, it's a complete unit with the hose attached. The new generation of air struts won't have that problem.
