Honest Question Looking For Honest Answers

[MikeJr74]

Has the installation of the Lowering Springs improved or degraded the comfort, handling, cornering of the Stinger?

I ask this honest question, looking for honest answers. I am seriously interested in lowering my GT2 AWD, but my biggest fear is doing so at the cost of the comfort and handling.

TIA for your response(s)

I've had the Eibach lowered springs fitted for almost 4 months now and I'm very happy with them. I'd say they may be slightly firmer than stock, they have settled lower than I expected. I had the wheel alignment done at the same time and the rear wheels appear to have a lot camber on them.

As a lot of people have stated the car has a low slung stance already so you might want to consider the Eibach front and rear swaybars first. This will give improved handling. Many are now saying this would be the first recommended mod, I mention this as you mentioned comfort and handling being a consideration.

I listened to those advocating the Eibach rear sway bar, as the simplest, most import mod we can do to improve handling. So far I am very happy with the result: tighter rear end cornering, and flatter, more "planted" too. The more firm handling does not impact the smoothness and comfort as far as I can tell; that was a concern and I am happy to say that the quality of the ride is the same.

I am dead set against lowering this already low car. Had my Stinger been just one inch lower than it is, last October would have been the death of her.
