Want to lower my AWD...

Post by BlueCrush »

I did a few searches on past threads am now thoroughly confused.All I want is a slight drop 1.5" in front and 1" in rear and a ride that is as close to stock as possible. It seems that Eibach Pro-Kit is one of the best but has drops of 1.5" on both front and rear. I don't want the rear to look lower than the front by having less space between the top of the tire and the fender. I say that Hotchkiss offers a kit that drops 1.5" in front and 1.1" at the rear. Anyone know which model the Hotchkiss was and is the ride quality similar to the Pro-Kit. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Well, I did some calling locally and got a hold of Discount Tire here in BP. They talked to Eibach and Eibach said they are coming out with a lowering Pro-Kit spring set specifically for the Vibe/Matrix AWD in mid-April.P.S. - Price will be $217 + shipping.
