you don't really want to hear my opinion about what you should do, though.

Yea ride qualit is a plus , especially in MN, as the winters destroy our roads.. Most people just order from Vogtlands, or is there a good distributor/vendor on the site here?

GR-2's which are pretty much...Stock strut replacements. If I were to do it again, I'd go Excel-G which are the new GR-2s, apparently those are a bit better, or balls to the wall, AGX. And that's only if you want to stick with KYB.

i found the springs idk how legit the place is tho
Auto Part Number 959206 From Vogtland | StreetPerformance.com

Yea Ive been searching for the Vogtland 959220 ( 04+ ) and nothing seems real reputable so far.. Also Can I still use the stock struts or are they gonna go out pretty quick?

Exel g's and Zzp lowering springs were really good on my gtp get the whole. Setup for a reasonable price

**comatoast** · 02-15-2013

Thanks, I see alot of talk about spacers, shoty dog bones LCA bushings etc.. Is all this just a natural problem of lowering, or is this just common on cars that are really slammed down like 2.5-3 inches?

Given that I'm a Gxp owner we can fit 275's on the stock wheel without a wider wheel...

your widest wheel is 8", you're still not making use of the 275 and would probably get more traction with a 255 unless you run really low tire pressures..
