I'm wondering what's the proper way to lower your car without throwing your camber alignment off? I heard people say u can lower your car by changing the drop spindles. U don't even need to change the springs and shocks. I also heard from performance improvements that drop spindles to lower your car is only used on trucks? So who is right? I know u will need shocks and springs to get your handling improvements, but i mean for look wise to lower your car. Some people told me that when u lower your car it can damage your driveshaft because the angly of the shaft sits higher now because the car is lower and it can click very easily. Do u have to buy a camber kit when your car is lowered? Also when u adjust the height does it throw your alignment off or not? If anyone can reply that would be very appreciated because i'm planning to lower my car and i've found a set of adjustable coilovers. What do u think of dropzone?

first dropzone's i would not trust them on my car, but them again i have never put anything make of cheap quality parts in it either.

the proper way would be buying a good set of shocks and springs, if you get sport spring's you can get away without using a camber kit, but if you want race springs it's recommenced. H&R make's a good sport spring, and koni yellows are one of the best shock's you can get, but are a little pricy. you can also get full coilover systems which are set for one another but will be the most expensive setup. or get something like Ground Control coilover's with Koni Yellows (a lot of auto x racer's use this setup and works great)

can't tell you much about any other shock because never tried them, I'm very happy with my full koni coilover's. but i have tried H&R sport springs and there excellent also, not to hard for daily driving but not to soft either

I have ground control coilovers and Koni Yellows, they rock!!! there is also the group buy for those omni ones that look ok. Your camber is gonna change, nothing you can do, if you drop a lot you can get a camber correction kit but a little doesn't hurt.

What camber does is wear your tires unevenly. But as well all know having camber gives you better handling. Double edged sword.

yes some camber does give you better handling, BUT to a certain degree, what handling is there when 1/3 or even 1/2 of your tire is not even touching the ground

grab some omni coilovers...their the ****!

i think he sells them for 900-1000. way cheaper than getting a spring and shock setup.
