ok im an idiot and didnt look around the site its 4 am and im tired after a day of searching. which kit of lowering springs would be a good buy and if anyone has the kit they suggest can i have a pic with the post so i have a reference.

Click Me

i saw these on ebay and they look good, the site says they are for SRT-4 but will they fit/work with the 05 SRT-D (SXT)? the color is not that important but orange, blue, and green are the colors i would prefer.

im pretty sure they will work. someone correct me if i am wrong but im pretty sure srt springs fit sxt. but i wouldnt trust those. go with eibach sportlines or H&R limiteds or Megan Racing. alot of ppl on here run them. and the megans are orange!!

Yo, orange, you don't live in PA do you? Also, I'm in the market as well, here are three links on three of the springs I can't decide between:
H&R Limited Edition

Megan Racing
http://www.meganracingperformance.com/0 ... p-408.html
Eibach Sportlines
http://www.modernperformance.com/eibach ... -1677.html

The H&Rs are almost exactly as much as those ebay shits, so get the quality springs instead.

I'd prefer the Tein S-Techs.

A drop of 1.9" all around and a stiff spring. Great stance for the money

uriahrr: i live in the northwest ohio area (toledo)

and the point of this is to find quality for the price and a good stance ill look to see if i have a side on pic to show my stance of now and ill just say you will be like wtf.

neonslg09 · Post by **neonslg09** » Mon Jan 04, 2010 1:55 pm

Tein's will give you the perfect stance. S-techs, not H-techs though.

orangeneon05 · Post by **orangeneon05** » Mon Jan 04, 2010 2:11 pm

yea my car and its glorious stance:

its higher then normal

It would look good I think quite lowered. Do you just want to get springs and struts? or did you think about the possiblity of coilovers?

orangeneon05 · Post by **orangeneon05** » Mon Jan 04, 2010 2:30 pm

well would i need struts with the lowering springs?

or would coiloves be better?

keep in mind i would like to be able to put the 17" SRT-4 rims on it before the lowering too see if that makes the space less noticeable. but i would like a less body roll on turns.

You'll eventually need struts to go with the springs. Struts will you give some better clearance.

But, coilovers, STBs, and good sway bars = secks.

if you could post on this fourm topic below

and what rim size do you have

Tokico Blues

Pro Kit
I wish I had sportlines, but I bought the setup used. Honestly it's dropped like they are sportlines
because my front lip is almost on the ground.

Also I have stock 7 spokes like you, only painted black.

orangeneon05 · Post by **orangeneon05** » Mon Jan 04, 2010 5:47 pm

well dang they are so they are the 15" alloy?

i want to be able to fit the 17" SRT-4 rims on it after the lowering.

heydockyle · Post by **heydockyle** » Mon Jan 04, 2010 5:53 pm

With my setup I'll be running srt rims this summer.

if those gave me less of a drop i would be all over those but L.A. streets are horrible

1972demon · Post by **1972demon** » Mon Jan 04, 2010 6:23 pm

The sportlines on konis will cause there srt struts. So bigger tires and not a huge drop.

I'll say it once. If your going to complain about being lowered, DONT LOWER IT.
