Ok I just put my new Tokico D-Spec sturts on my 00 Z and im very happy with how the ride came out. Compared to what it was before it rides great now. Now the only thing is I have to set the strut as far soft as they will go in the back to get a desent ride. My Z was already lowered when I bought it 4yrs ago so im not 100% what brand they are and I've got 19's on my cavalier on 235 35 19. The LF tire hits the fender well alot. The RF barely does it, so withthe tire hitting and having to ajust the struts to full soft to get a desent ride im guessing the springs I got are crappy. So Im looking at getting the
Eibach Sport Line Lowering Springs for the Z. Question is this, How good is the ride quailty on the Eibach Sport Line Lowering Springs with the Tokico D-Spec struts since they have the biggest drop. Sorry for writing so much but I want to give as much info as I can so I can get a good answer cause im looking more for a good ride and the car to look good then for performace. I still love to play in the corners but how it rides and looks means more to me. thanks guy and sorry about the book. Oh and the springs I got on the car now are yellow if that help with knowing the brand there is some #'s on them but no brand name anywhere....
its however you want it to be. the struts are adjustable so no one can give you an answer. its all personal preference.
I would say the ride quality is compromised somewhat. The cornering ability is great, but there is only so much you can do with limited travel and high spring rates.
I have experience with sportlines, so I can say this with confidence. Many suggest roadmagnets as the "comfortable alternative" to sportlines, however I do not yet have these springs...

Yea i've looked at that site and all they offer is a 2.2 drop and I think that is to much for my car seeing I have 19's and my offset (unknown) makes the wheels on my car right at the edge of my fender. I see alot of people on here talking about 1.8 and 2in drops for the road magnets and I think one of those will work fine.
get a slightly skinnier tire (225/35) it may help it out a little bit, but find out what the offset on the tires is for sure.
lot's of people have the 19's with sport lines or similar drop. haven't heard of any problems.
