    Icon5 what lowering spriangs to buy for stock shock?

    for some reason i am finding it hard to search for this. but here it goes

    what lowering springs do i buy for stock shock? for my G 2.4 2001
    or do i need to buy shocks too.

    I have read that if i buy lowering springs that are not meant for that specific shock they will ruin the shock?

    How much should i lower it i want to be able to drive a bit in the gravel yet make it look low. is 2" enough

    THX in advance

    ur better off buying new aftermarket struts like kyb gr2 or abx or coilovers if u plan to lower ur car

    I'm running gr2 with eibach springs, gave me a great drop and handle better too almost 2in in the front and 1.5 in the rear if I remember

    never lower a car on stock struts, they will blow very fast

    i ran tein Stechs on GR2s for a while, great ride, blew out the fronts after a year, warranty replaced
