With my 16" rims and the amount of drop, it should in theory...look good. have to wait till next paycheck to pick them up. Hope they are still on ebay.
 
Re: Just a Topaz Gold Metalic GTP

Wait, why is the drop bigger in the rear?

Shouldnt it be switched around, more drop in the front, less in the back?

Well sh1t, I didn't think about that. All I really saw was the cheap price.

I havent much about those springs but those spring rates are too low and you really dont want to have the rear lower than the front.

btw man. I know im a few hours away but if you need any help with your GTP let me know.

Re: Just a Topaz Gold Metalic GTP

Lowered the car today, got these springs NEW 97-03 Pontiac Grand Prix SSI lowering springs 1.9"F/2.3"R | eBay so far I like them just waiting on them to settle. I KNOW the drop rate is backwards, but I think they have it backwards. Cause I think the drop looks good so far.

Your gold looks better than mine.. but maybe thats just the picture, love the car, and yes. the color does take some getting used to. i used to feel like i was driving a grandpa car. haha..
 
Re: Just a Topaz Gold Metalic GTP

It handles better even on stock struts? I was thinking about getting some. I have monroe sensatrac struts that were on the car when i bought it.
 


Re: Just a Topaz Gold Metalic GTP

Hell ya Mike, they were fun to take off but I am glad they look so good back on, just wish we could have gotten an impact wrench lol

The muscles in my arms and hands are killing me, but if your buddy had not had that manual impact I probably would have not been able to get them done. Tell Lance thanks again.
 
Re: Just a Topaz Gold Metalic GTP

Not bad, hows the ride? I was looking at them but was still going to go a different way because the company you got yours from never list the spring rate and I don't want a saggy lowered back end.
 
Re: Just a Topaz Gold Metalic GTP

The ride is more responsive and I have a small amount of pogo. I like these springs, I felt like being a lab rat and test these out. Also for $67 and free shipping the wife was not to angry at me lol. They are still settling. Will take pics in a week to see if they have lowered any more.
