332, 0"-4" lowering shocks
Posted by GSound, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
i have these lowering shocks for my 99 eclipse but i haven't put them in yet. they retail for about 800$-1000$ and are designed to work with my stock springs.
can anyone tell me what are the disadvantages of doing this? i heard they are really good shocks.. made by some company named bektech(?) bech-tech? bek-tek? something like that.
i am planning to lower my car soon and need to know what to do.

I have seen those and like them. You might want to get stiffer springs because when you go over a big bump at speed the soft (stock) spring will compress a lot and you will probaly bottom out. The stiffer spring won't compress as much so you will have a more stable ride when you hit bumps.

That would be Bel-tech. I dont know if they are even still making car suspension but anyway they were aquired by suspension techniques. I dont know of any disadvantages to it other than the one concerned already stated.
