suspension question for michigan people

Im thinking about getting the eibach pro kit for my car. Problem is I dont want my car to turn into a snow plow. I know its only a 1" drop all around which I dont think will be too bad even for Michigan.

My question is what is everyone else's set up? Plus, is there much of a difference in ride with the prokit? Better? Worse? Rougher? Smoother? I still have stock rims and its a 2001.

I plan on doing a prokit but i am going to replace the struts and put a camber kit on. It will cost money but the ride will be nice. I hear a lot about progress they have agood ride i am going to do my researchh before buying.

Cool, ive seen ur name around here a few times and I wondered if thats what it meant. Did u go to school in the valley? Its good here other than the fact thats theres a bunch of shootings going on downtown. I dont go there much so its good

Thanks for the info though ill be doing some research on it and will prolly be back with some more questions for ya

yea i went to the valley fall '97-03 i liked it up there. the valley changed a whole lot since i left i come back sometimes. and as far as the struts go yea the tokio blues are pretty nice they bolt right up, because i didn't want to have to hack my struts like i would have if i bought konis. u come down here much?? if u do i'll show u around sometime. i lost all my import buddies because they traded in all there cars, and now there isn't anyone left to ride with.
