Ive read and read and read and read about the differences between the two springs and how it changes how the car handles and rides...
thats just to let you know I have read the threads on this wonderful board and am not just asking a question without prior research...
It seems that the majority of people here like the prokit vs the sportline because it doesnt lower the car as much... especialy for a daily driver. Is there a spring out there that would be inbetween a prokit and a sportline (obviously not by Eibach... but some other company).
Also, does anyone here (on their daily driver) have sportline springs installed? If so, have you had any issues at all? (please consider the following: In the area I live and areas I drive (daily) there are very few potholes or high curbs and only a few speed bumps)
Also, I have 20"x8.5" wheels with Nitto 555's ... With either the prokit or the sportline's will I get any wheel rub when turning?
I have the pro-kit with 18x8.5s and I'm really happy with the way the car looks and rides. 20s shouldn't be a problem as long as you have lower-profile tires on them.

No wheel rub. I have sportlines with 20's and they are streetable if you don't have bumpy roads or potholes. They are tolerable on a smooth road but if the roads are poor, definitely not.
well thanks... im glad someone had somthign to say about sportline's... man thats a beautifull car... can you give me some specs on the wheels you got? Fantastic ride though man... freakin cool...
Just got my Shaker hood put on yesterday... merged it with a C&L CAI and a BBK 70mm Throttle body... I think once I lower it and detail the hell out of my car Im going to take a bunch of pics and show off my girl like the rest of you guys :-)
American Racing Anthracite Shelby Razors 20x9 Max recommended tire width 275 (I have 255/35ZR20 all round). They come in chrome and silver as well. http://www.americanracing.com/browse_carroll.asp
Are there any recommendations as far as shock/strut bracing/panhard replacement with the lowering of the car... especially with the prokit? I figured shocks could be an issue since the OEM shocks aren't designed for that... but what about the other things?
The lowering kit will change the angle of the lower control arms, so a lca relocation bracket will return them to the correct angle. Adjustable lower control arms will make installation easier and correct the pinion angle which will be changed by lowering. They also will be stronger than the stock ones. Lowering also pushes the rear axle to the left as the angle of the panhard rod has been changed so an adjustable panhard rod will allow you to recenter the rear axle.
