    I'm loving the way it looks.
    I'd say.

    Let me know what you think of the sway bars. I've only done the springs on mine, but have thought recently about the sway bars. Curious to hear your opinion.

      The sway bars were the first thing I noticed when I left Deerfield, definately an improvement over stock. Plus it's an easy mod, if you do it yourself.

        New Stance after installing the Megan Racing Street Series coilovers. Thanks to Garrett at Deerfield for the install !! More pictures to come in the near future.

            Thanks, we put it where the springs were, which were a 1.4" drop, I think after it settles I'll be about 1.5" lower give or take.

                If my car was just a weekender they would have been fine, but a DD, I couldn't handle the ride. And once you put on bouncy springs, it's really easy to talk the wife into coilovers

                  LOL! We were both so ready to get out of the car after the 2 hour ride home from The Hooters meet. Melissa said the ride home about made her sick it was so bouncy. Pretty sure coil overs are in my future too.

                    Interesting. Normally coil over will have a more harsh ride when compared to just springs.

                    What lowering springs did you have before?

                    sent from my galaxy s3. that would explain the errors.

                      They were bell tech, also I think I had a bad front strut, dealer told me twice it was normal to feel like the strut was bottoming out on certain bumps ( before the spring install). Hitting the same exact bumps with the coilovers, now results in a perfectly normal ride.

                        I went just an inch and my ride stayed the same.talked to the guys at phasteck when I ordered mine and they had the 1.4 drop on their shop car and took them off and went to the 1 inch drop because of the ride. I love mine so far.

                                The joy of having coilovers, you're not set on the height.

                                Al, still digging those Ruff rims. Those are one of my favorite on a Camaro. Really looks good on your car.
