    I have buick springs in mine, they are supposed to have a higher rate. If you look at almost all stock grand prix's the rear end sags on them, this helps to level it out, I think it looks a lot better.

    Save your money and buy the Intrigue springs from GM. I bought mine from PACE Performance - GM Parts, Crate Engines, and Aftermarket Accessories

    PN 10391592 - $26.79 each

    These work great and are much cheaper than WBS.

    Yes, these are just for the rear. As are the WBS ones. Only WBS sells them in pairs.

    when I bought these springs, I emailed Greg Was that works at Pace and he confirmed the PN for me. I have been using these for over a year and they work great.

    I the Intrigue Springs too... I ran them for quite a while and loved them. I still have them and i'm thinking about reinstalling them. I have Monroe qucik struts in the rear now because KYBs suck.

    Yeah those Intrigue springs gave my car a nice stance. It raised the ass end about .5". I used them to elimante ass sag, especailly at the track. They worked great.

    Reply from hgw997; I see it on Pace for $47.25... ? they call it an F spring... is this what you installed? And it lifted the rear? What, an inch, 2? Just wondering. My 96 coupe 133k is worth upgrading and keeping, I hope! 3.1 liter bone stock, she rocks, esp in smooth pavement. rough road, shake your fillings loose. Thx, Hank in WI
