    Let me know what you think:









    I used these springs off of ebay:
    NEW 97-04 Pontiac Grand Prix SSI lowering springs : eBay Motors (item 110494357429 end time Feb-23-10 13:48:26 PST)

    For as cheap as they were with free shipping I love how level of a drop they gave the grand prix.

    Front definitely looks lower, but the rear doesn't. Give them a couple weeks or so to settle and then take pictures. Let us know the ride quality also!

    Hell yeah post up some more shots in a few weeks and show us how they settle down. Looks like a good stance, just need some rims and tires to really bring the whole package together.

    I'm hoping that when the springs finally settle more they will be lower. The ad stated 1.90" in the front and 2.30 in drop in the rear. So i'm hoping it will settle more and be closer to what they. But over all not a bad product for as little as they cost new. Where else you going to find lowering springs New for 115 shipped?

    I am wanting some nice 18's but I have yet to find a set of rims that don't look all G'ed out. I just want a SIMPLE 5 spoke rim.
