How much does the prokit run you? And is it just shocks? Or shocks and struts?

sportlines were the best mod ive done by far. totally different car. sticks to the road mostly.... imo, these f bodys dont handle all that great to begin with. what good is a 160 mph death trap that can't stay on the road. kinda scary! get sportlines...or die....

How long the sportlines been on?

I love the way sportlines look, but they dont handle well at all. too low, not enough travel, not enough rate, dont have shocks that can handle them.

Give it time, you will grow tired of them

I started with the KYB 8-way adjustable front and back with eibach pro kit springs. very rough ride lots of bottoming out and scrapping in drive ways and speed bumps. broke a rear shock too. switched to edelbrock shocks in the rear and strano springs all around, MUCH better ride quality. would definitely recommend strano over eibach, but stranos don't sit as low as the eibach if your goin for real aggressive look like the pics you have. kinda have to choose between ride quality and looks...

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions! Its now weeks later and I still havnt gotten the shocks or springs...haha I guess what it comes down to is what springs look/work best with OEM c6 wheels. Im Leaning towards the pro-kit but i just wish BMRs or Stranos were lower in the front. Though att his point im still running the zr1s.

I would suggest Strano springs, the amount of Info.(From Experience) you will get when you call and talk to Sam is worth every penny.
