Lowering 101
Lowering 101
Alright..I'm interested in lowering my vibe..what should I know before i do that? What's the benefits of coilovers? Will lowering springs (such as eibach) ruin the struts that's in the car? as well, I've also heard that the tires will wear faster. Is this true?Let me know what I should know ...thanks!

If you go with Pro-Kits, TRD, Hotchkis or H&R you won't notice shock or wear problems after a front toe adjustment. Any lower than 1.5" drop and the risks get greater without different shocks and camber plates. Many go lower for looks but unless they're coilovers the ones listed above do the most for handling on the street where some wheel travel is needed.
