Help Matching Lowering Springs with Shocks
I was wondering if these lowering springs (https://www.hawksmotorsports.com/82-...cation-eibach/) would match these struts (https://www.hawksmotorsports.com/198...detroit-speed/) and these shocks (https://www.hawksmotorsports.com/82-...k-b6-bilstein/). Or is there a specific set of shocks and struts I need to purchase so that the springs and shocks can work properly hand in hand. If there is a specific set or combinations can you name them? Thanks

If you're taking the car on the track, then it matters a WHOLE lot more. And it's never a matter of this part good, that part bad. Everything is a give and take and has to be fine tuned over time with trial and error. For a street driven car, the main thing you want to be sure of is that the strut can operate within the range the spring allows. A lowered car's suspension has less travel obviously but it has to do the same work. You just need a strut that's up to the challenge. Those Koni's are awesome struts, -and they're adjustable. LOTS of us run them. ...I'd get the matching Koni rear shocks too, since they're adjustable. I think they're cheaper than the Bilsteins too. I bought my Koni's at Shock Warehouse. All four were under $850, with tax and shipping.
They're not the cheapest out there, but I don't know that there's a better choice out there for anywhere near that cost. ...if it's withing your budget...get the Koni's
