Vogtland Springs...

Does anyone have a picture of their ride lowered with these springs? They claim a 1.2 drop which seems modest. I know my car was sagging a little with the worn IROC springs, I don't wanna throw these badboys on only to have it the same height or higher. Thanks

Get a pro-kit, it's tried and proven. I've got it and love it, so does 1/2 the board. So why get a spring you've never heard of?

I like to be different. Plus, who says I've never heard anything about them? They are a reputable company, and members here have these springs. Just looking for a pic so I can get an idea of the stance. I've heard good and bad things about the prokit, looking for input on Vogtland though.

Re: Vogtland Springs...

Heard they were lighter weight springs too which is always good..

Re: Vogtland Springs...

rears look fine, but the front rates seem a little soft? i'll have to check the prokit and see what they are

all in all, they dont look like a bad deal
