I didn't mind the factory ride height of the front of the car, but the rear seemed to "jacked" up to me in stock form.

The Eibach Pro Kit's were a PERFECT choice for what Im going for. It kept the front the same but "leveled" out the rear, and I'll still have room for 19's with a little road clearance. (Michigan roads are the worst in the country!)

Ride quality is suburb, feels like stock to be honest, maybe a little firmer.

I'll post new pics once I get new wheels.

Looks awesome. Yea I dont like how it looked jacked up in the rear. Nice and level now. What kinda 19's are you going with?

I'm diggin that spoiler. Looks good.

It's a tossup between these two Axis wheels, both will fit the uncommon SS lug pattern :

looks about the same to me.

Always a smart@ss.

Again as stated above for those who can read, the front is the same but the rear is slighty lower, just how I wanted it to be for it "levels" the car out in appearance.

Before:


After:

i still dont see a big diff, lol. i guess i suck.


-Borsty

I dont' see much of the diffrence either

But I would go with the Top wheels

Again guys I wasn't after "Much" or I would have gone sportlines.

Now it sits just right in my opinion. I didn't want to go low for Im going with 19's and the michigan roads. Makes sense don't you think.

its lower you gotta see it in person, looks great buddy

My friend has those wheels on her RSX, very sharp looking. I love them.

I can tell a small difference in the rear, looks good.

Have a good one,
Justin

Looks good man, whats up with your exhaust tip not align with the whole in the rear skirt? It just looks off.. Im looking at the picture of the rear of your car.. 4th down.

You're correct my man. That pic was actually one from another post pre-lowering. (you can see chad's blue 03 to the left. I had the exhaust fixed before the springs went on.

^^^ Got cha, as long as its fixed now thats all that matters hehe.

Def talk to Jim@Gravana if yer looking at the AXIS wheels. I picked mine up from him before he started selling them on his website.

if your worried about the roads in MI , then i sure the hell would stay away from 19's


id be getting 17" so i could use more side wall , to protect the rim from flat spots


the 2nd set of pics , are a bad compairson , cause the angles are bad on the droped pic


this pic looks more level

<img src="http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/7460/dsc009776is.jpg">

so wheres the drop? cant tell by the pics. i was expecting alittle more. looks good nonetheless.i would g with the crux wheels.

I was pushing my budget limits as is, I got if for under 20k which is my goal. Im shocked to see the non supercharged SS' at the same dealer for 20-21k, it baffles me. I don't think any cobalt is worth paying over 20k for even the lsd equipped ones. But Im happy with what I found.


*** I AM GOING WITH THE AXIS CRUX WHEELS 19x8 Thanks again for your opinions. I know alot of people don't like the cobalt, Im hoping to changes I have in mind that I may build a Cobalt that anyone would respect. Thanks again.

you do have one sweet @ss ride...dont let anyone tell you otherwise. i really do like it great job!

is that the eibach kit for the base cobalts?




R.I.P. Brian Klocke, you will never be forgotten

Brandon- I ordered these through RkSport. They told me that that eibach stated that since the SS/SC is already lowered from the factory that you'd have to subtract that height from the drop the springs provide. Another words all Cobalts they say supposedly use the same pro kit and sportline kit. Thats why I chose the pro kit cause I just wanted a little rear drop which it did. If you do know that there seperate kits please let me know Brandon so I can adress the issue. Nice seeing your car at the bash by the way, always wanted to see it in person, flawless.
