wrong forum...can someone redirect this n00b
j/k but seriously prodrive springs are great, i have them on my 04 with agx struts and have worked really well. purchased from www.mauromotorsports.com for 289 shipped. Not the lowest drop if your looking for style points
hope that helps

i think it was like a 20~25mm drop. my car looks almost stock height. i have about 2 fingers on the front. the ride isn't too harsh. i think prodrive sets a enforces prices on everything they sell, so there's very little price fluxuation between dealers.

Here's a pic of a car with Prodrives https://www.i-club.com/forums/attach...chmentid=20481.

I'm about to sell my SPT's and install a set of Ground Control's so I can pick my own spring rates and adjust ride height to my liking.

prodrives only lower about ~20mm
fit about 1 finger in the rear, and a little over 2 in the front. if you're looking for something lower, i wouldn't get these.

Actually Prodrives lower the car around 1.5" which is around 38mm.

BTW, the way you guys are gauging the fender gaps is pretty funny if you think about it .

Do any of you use the prodrive springs with the stock struts? if so how is the ride quality?

yea the prodrives for the 04-05 lower around 38mm in the front. i think the 02-03 line doesn't drop it quite that much...

i'm looking into them myself for the 05. so far i've heard good things.
