Goldlines get pretty low, so do Sprints, but thats because they both sag past the advertised drop.

I have Sprints advertised 1.8" drop I'd say they're a 2" drop after it's all said and done!

you do know that the agx have a 1.5" limit right? sure you can put lower springs on them but if the struts blow you cant send them back to kyb to get them replaced

unoath: You have it. The H&Rs are the lowest you can go on AGXs without instantly voiding the warranty. Even on those you may have troubles with warranty work, although they are within spec (spring rate wise, which is the intent behine the 1.5" warranty statement) iirc.

My intrax's are a claimed 2" drop all the way around. I love the way these things handle and they look great on the car.

Lowest springs is Sprint. I have seen some people on sprints say their car is sitting 2.25" You will need to change your struts those AGX may not hold up to long.

I'm on sprints about a 2" drop and I'm still on stock struts 20,000 miles and they are still not blown. Not the nicest ride but it handels awsome. I'm going to get some koni's soon so chill.

Classic JBO misinfomation. Sprints and not blown, everyone i know with sprints and stock struts have blown them in less that 3months. Not trying to be funny but many people (including myselft before i understood more about suspension) have gotten use to their ride that until the put on a decent set of struts, they don't realize their struts are blown or you ride in a persons car with a good set of struts. May be where you live the road a fairly smooth so you can't really tell. I can guarantee you if you remove you struts they are blown.

Anyone who uses bouncy and good ride in a sentence regarding suspension doesn't have to much knowledge on the subject. A good lowered ride is suppose to be firm and stiff not bouncy.
