Just wondering what a comfortable drop would be. I have 16'' stock rims, and going to get some 225/40 tires on them, i have ALOT of wheel space in the rear, more than the front. Seein what you guys are dropping, thanks.
you need 225/50/.16 tires... your current size is to small
If I drop my 01 Sunfire about 1.8 inches or so would I need a camber kit or anything else besides the springs?
Camber kits are unneeded for J-bodies. My camber doesnt change at all with my airride.
So all I need to buy is the springs then, nothing else?
and tires .. and shocks/ struts
in theory... springs would drop ur car, and yes, it would drive...
would it be safe? no
would your struts blow? yes
would you be in for a lot of work in the near future? yes
in reality u need lowering struts and springs to lower your car, and yes, new tires would be a bonus
Can someone PLEASE tell me how low is enough to cause extremely early axle replacing. Example, i want to daily drive with a 3.7 inch drop with 205/55/16"s (2 3/4" between rim and fender). PM me, thanks in advance guys.

camber 'kits' dont just serve that purpose. they also allow you to place camber in on purpose to get the car to handle better.
i dont know why this is such a common mis-conception.
TO OP: lower it til the control arms are parallel to the ground.

.
If someone was that serious about handling to dial in alittle negative camber i would image that they would be running camber plate mounts.
hey some people would rather spend $30 over $230.

camber kit can help align the car as well
