VOGTLAND SPORT PLUS LOWERING SPRING KIT

[Doctor Fishtail]

Just picked up a set of these. 1.3" Front and Rear drop. Is there any other members that have installed these? They should be here thursday. Hoping to install friday. These Sportlines fractured my neck this weekend. :doh:

Yea the spring rates are a bit less harsh. I now have 3 sets of lowering springs in my garage. The Vogtlands should give the perfect stance as well and most importantly the performance.

[MENTION=21434]Doctor Fishtail[/MENTION], have you tried any of the BMR springs?

No. The drop is not sufficient for my style. They are geared more towards straight-line track. I am not a fan of rake with these cars. This is my preference not a slam at BMR in any way. Now I have offered to test the BMR springs once they decide to give a bit more drop. For me if I had 20" tires I would probably get a set but 20" wheel/tires make the car look to tall if I may. They are an inch bigger than my 19s. The Vogtlands will be my 5th set of springs in less than 5,000 miles. Talked with Bilstein today also hoping to swap these Konis for theirs. But they have pushed back their release date once again. Talking mid 2017. :frusty:

I forgot, have you done the Steeda ultralites?

No. The Steeda Sport linears. Did not like the ride with the Ford Racing struts/shocks. Had I tried them with the Konis it might be another story.

I have these springs on mine with 1" spacers and PP wheels. Love the stance and ride quality is great IMO.

They are some great springs.

i just got mine installed saturday. I like them so far, also considering spacers. JaxS550 would you post a picture

Hey guys, I have pics of the set up but I'm new on here and can't figure out how to get pics to upload.

Good thing is the spacers bring the wheels out enough to look flush but still squeeze inside the fender without rubbing or any clearance issues with turning. I had a buddy say it looked like an optical illusion because it looks like they stick out, but still don't rub.
I get the ever so slightest amount of bump steer with really bad bumps, but not enough for me to want to get the $200 bump steer kit yet.

The 1" spacers do the trick. Very sweet fat look.

did you do spacers on front and rear?
