I'm trying to determine if I'm going to keep this or sell it ( 07 Cobalt S). If it does hang around it's going to need springs and possibly some Techart Formulas. What brand springs have you guys been using? Ride comfort is important to me, and are 19"s big enough for the Cayman?. I sort of like my 19" Turbos, but think maybe I should just get another set and unbolt them while they are new (1800 miles). Thanks for the info...

 

Are you just looking to lower it? I would think Eibach would probably have a pro kit for it or try H&R.

I have seen a couple a guys do coilovers (myself as well) but that is a lot more money and maybe not what you are looking for.

 

H&R here and for NY its just right! Not to mention the dealer did it for me!

 

Techart sells a set of lowering springs for your car. Retail is $549 They are made by Eibach specific to Techarts specs.

Eibach's set is priced cheaper at $375 for the set.

H&R's can be had for $329

H&R also makes the springs for Cargraphic according to their own specs. Not sure on the price of those of the top of my head.

Generally for Porsche's, the H&R's will be slightly lower than the eibach's.

Be prepaired to get an alignment as well as about 6 hours of installtion time.
Good Luck with your decision.

 

H&R's will give you a nice stance and your ride quality won't suffer to much.

 

I have Techart springs and 20" Techart Formula wheels...

I'm satisfied with it, but i hoped the car would be lower.

20" wheels are perfect for regular driving, but too big for track.

 

I went with the Bilstein PSS9.
You get adjustable ride height, adjustable ride firmness.

here is how it looks lowered.

 

Once you've done springs, wouldn't you want to get shocks to match them? If so, which ones?

 

H&R here also. Were great.

 

i went with techart.

i should have went with eibach for the extra drop though.

20mm isn't very much

 

Hey Jonas, what kind of wheels are those?

 

I know this is an old thread but does anyone know what kind of wheels those are on jonas' car? They look like some kind of Fikses?

 

they are Fiske

 

my workshop said, techart is the same as H&R.

 

I think H&R gives the best drop for springs. Handling is the same as well as ride.
