What Lowering springs to get....

Right now i have lowering springs with 215-35-18 tires and i have a one finger gap in the front and abuot a half a finger in the rear, due to the system(one 12 in big box). I am having trouble bottoming out my exhaust on some intersections. The springs that are on it now are Dropzones(CRAP!!) and are supposed to lower it 2.25 all around. I want a smooth riding shock with no sag in the rear with a system and i also dont want to have to worry about dragging my exhaust at all!!! HELP ME OUT GUYS!! Thanks.

so are you looking for springs or shocks?
what exhaust do you have? magnaflow?
if you get koni's you can fix the height of the rear.
also might want to get your exhaust rebent.. if your scraping on just intersections, there has to be something wrong with the mounting..

Well I guess its obvious that your car is just sitting too low to the ground. Just buy new springs with less of a drop ... cheaper then getting $1200 Koni's (CDN). So go for a goldline at about 2" or a neuspeed sport about 1.75"F/1.5"Rear.

well if you want some springs, get somethin that doesn't lower your car more than 1.75'. That will leave just enough space so you wont scrap your exhaust. You should go and check out springs at this site.
