Need Opinion on Skunk2 products

By biretsu89
- Tue May 27, 2008 3:43 am #56706 Hello, I was trying to look into what suspension I want. Right now my eg is lowered by Vogtland springs(german made), and they only lowered my car about 1 inch =/. Also, I replaced my stock shocks with Kyb Gr-2s... but they arent anyting special.

I was wondering about skunk2 springs and skunk2 shocks. I dont want coilovers because I wont be doing any hardcare track or anything. Also, I dont want to spend a lot on my suspension. I just want basicaly the cosmetic lowering purpose and also a little better handling.

Does any one have any experience with skunk2 springs and shocks? Any help would be much apreciated. Thanks!! :thumb:
