    Help with springs...

    I'm seriously looking into getting my corolla dropped. I was looking at the Tein springs, but i'm not really sure. I also considered the Ground Control coilovers, but over $300 is a lot for just lowering...
    I want a drop of at least 2". Anywhere between 2" and 3" would be great. help?

    I got Ground Control. It is a lot more then just buying springs. Just remember, it only takes once to regret not being able to adjust them when you need to.

    Remember air shocks? Wonder how come nobody makes air struts? My father's Cad has a automatic car leveling system in it (quite a weird feeling if you're not expecting it and turn the key on). Far as I can tell it's just a couple rubber bags inside the springs and around the struts. Don't know how it would help handling since it's a luxury thing. But with lowering springs and those it would be easy to raise the car for us poor winter drivers.

    Theres something called air bags which lowers and raises the car with the switch of a button, and theres no performance in that, just all show.

    i think he knows that, the GC's have eibach springs but arent made by eibach, the other option is to get koni struts, they achieve the same purpose, drop and raise when you like
