i think carotman has a set of those, ask him how they are, they're supposed to be the same rates/drop as the h&r's which are very popular.

i got them for my 89 lxi, they are supposed to drop the car 1.5" all around...i bought them more for the lowered look than actual performance, but ill let you know how it turns out.

I have them on my car. Right now I have them with stock struts and there getting worn out. Possibly from regular ware and tare. I like them not to low but low enough to change the look. One thing you might want to think about doing is cutting your pinch forks. With just the springs it will look like the back of your car is lower, with the cut forks it will be nice and even.

Here's a link for it.

Your worn stock dampers will not last well with the stiffer springs. Your car will have a floaty, bouncy ride until you have shocks that can properly control the stiffer springs. If you don't really care about how the car performs then some lifetime shocks might be the way to go when the current ones get bad enough to be worth the trouble to you.

like mentioned above, they are the same stiffness as the H&R. they are the softest springs available, so dont run them with stiff shocks

just get new struts with the Neuspeed springs and you will be fine.


The cheapest route is Tokico Blues all around with the Neuspeed springs. The other option is finding Koni struts which is hard to find nowadays. The other strut option is revalved bilstiens which is the most expensive way and the only available option for us that isn;t out of production like the konis.


Good luck on what you want to do.

my suggestion is on a budget, get the Tokico/neuspeed setup if you arent about performance and just want a lowered car.
