Best 1inch Lowering Springs, Re-doing my suspension ....again Options

[UTSlickVic]

Hi all,

Once again my suspension is just utter ****. 8-9 years ago I started off with Eibach ProKit Springs (1inch drop), with stock struts. Those road fine but noticed the travel of the suspension was causing my tires to bottom. Ok, so I wanted some stiffer aftermarket struts.... order blistein struts; bad choice. Waaay to stiff and always klunking (and yes replaced the strut mounts). At this point I don't know what to blame the springs or the struts..... but enough is enough.

I would like to have my suspension feel "stock" (i.e not stiff), without changing my ride height from the 1" drop. I realize that having 18" wheels introduces it's own problems, I accept that.
So my plan is to order either KYB or Monroe struts, and replace my springs with 1" drop aftermarket springs. The problem is Eibach doesn't make the 1" drop ProKit Springs anymore. So, does anyone have recommendations on a Very Good aftermarket spring brand (that offers 1" drop)? Want a brand that'll last for years and not give me a "harsh" ride quality.

If this makes a night/day difference, I'll proceed to replace all the suspension bushings (no poly... just new stock parts).

Thanks,

The thing being with coil-overs it won't be that much more over getting new struts, springs, and mounts. The advantage with coil-overs being you can set the dampening amount, and of course get the perfect amount of drop you're wanting. Megan has the EZ Street series that is $600 or so shipped off eBay, I want to say those here that have them like them. There's a suspension review thread around here somewhere.
