Unfortunately after buying the car, I realized that the springs were cut. The car salesman said that it had some kind of sport suspension, so I was like, o.k. cool. When I lifted the car to do my first oil change on the car, I saw that the springs and struts weren't aftermarket. Well, I'm happy that the car is dropped at least, but it rides a little rough. I'm trying to figure out what kind of lowering springs I can get that would give me pretty much the same drop. I really don't want to go much lower because the front bumper sits about 6" off the ground and this is my dd.

 

Is 6" ground clearance not a lot?
I don't think it looks too dropped at all.. Are you sure they are cut and not just the sport suspension?

 

it definitely looks like sports suspension height in the pix. right now it looks like you have about 26.5"-27" ground to fender. i just dropped mine and once it settles it'll be at 25" GTF. also put up pix of the suspension, we can tell you if they were cut or not. if they were you should take the car back to the dealership and make them fix it to OEM spec

 

So If I did have the sport suspension, how much lower is that compared to stock?

 

Thats def a sport suspension wheel package. Sport suspension sits about .5" - .75" lower than stock non sport.

 

are the shocks red? and do you have an 00-01? cause those are 00-01 sport wheels

and if u wanna go lower, with the stock sport shocks the safest is probly h&r race springs. or vogtland sport springs. heres an example


thats stock sport shocks with vogtland sport springs. i belive h&r race make u go even lower but might get a little rough on the shocks. if u get aftermarket shocks such as blistens and h&r race springs you will have an amazing setup.

 

i have a 99 pre faceleft how would i know if i had the sports package cause it handle's amazing!

 

Red shocks. If the body of the shock is red. Your sport am u can tell by the stock wheels too

 

Dunno.. I have those same wheels w/different center caps and mine looks like a 4x4

 

I would get the H&R sport springs (black) which is what mine has. The race springs are a little too low for my blood. Here is a crappy phone pic of my B5 with the H&R sport springs.

Plus one more.
