Same question to you.... what dampers are you using with those springs? The stockers will be shot in a couple of months, and not ride too good...

stock shock will work and will last for a while. H&R now makes a "touring" cup kit which only drops the car 1.5" iirc. comes with shocks and is matched and balanced perfectly like the standard Cup kit with the big Drop.

I was surprised at just how easy this was. It took me just under 2 hours to do all four springs. Mind you the first one, was the learning one....what does what what goes where kinda thing..after that...it was cake...Do it yourself if you can...save atleast 300 bones.
