I would like to go with the sportlines cause i would like the lower stance, but everbody seems to like the pro kits better. Any info or experiences with the springs would be helpful. I will be using Kyb AGX's and i just want to get the better spring.

I have sportlines. I like the lw stance and the ride isn't bad. It gets bouncy as the factory shocks/struts whatever whear out. I am getting sideskirts on soon tho, and it is gonna be low, but from what I hear, there isn't much difference in height. I'd say get a pro kit to save any hassles. If you don't plan to get a body kit or any fiberglass, sportline will be hassle free.

Yeah, I'd get the prokits also. I have them and love 'em. I know that a few people have switched from Sportlines to Prokits (Kory) and liked them much better. I was told they are stiffer than the Sportlines also.

i would stay away from the AGX shocks if you go the sportline route. For some strange reason, the AGX shocks do not like the lower stance of the sportlines and will blow out prematurely. Check RRE's site for more input on this from Mike W.
I think you are better off with the tokico with prokit or sportlines. Personally I would have gone with the Prokits as I like their sprign rate and ride quality.

I would like to how big of a difference in wheel well gap there is, i mean how big a difference in looks between the two springs, it you cant hardly tell i will deffinetly go with the pro-kits but if i dosent look like i am lowerd that much with prokits i will go with sportlins i would like to run 215/40/17 or 205/40/17 tires

well, my speedometer is off a lil with the 40 series tires. I wanna raise it for sideskirts, better handling, better feel, and to get those 45 series tires on again when I need new ones. The 40's don't grip as well as the 40's did IMO.

plus it makes the ride more harsh, smaller tires=better feel for the road. It is kewl to know where the car stands, but forgect feeling every pebble vibrate thru the tires all the way to the top of your hollowed out skull(it already shook your brain out)

Thanks for the help,
Looks like i will be getting the prokits with 205/45/17 tires or 215/45/17 tires i would like the more progressive spring rate of the prokits and once they settle they will be about the size of stock sportlines or just a little higher.
