Convertible Lowering Springs?


I had Dugan Racing install his Trick one springs. Thay handle Awesome but it didn't drop the front enough. anyone know which springs will slam the front?? I know it's different than the coupe because of weight distribution.
thanks

Eibach Sportline Springs will give you a 2" drop. The numbers may be a little different for a convertible, but not by a lot.

The only dif between coupe and convertible springs are the rears,there is a LITTLE more weight concentrated back there from the roof frame,even more so when its down and ALL the weight is right on the rear springs.If you use coupe springs it will just give it a little extra drop in the ass.If you want to make up a little more drop in the front leave out the isolators.
