Im currently running sprint springs (with camber kit) and it seems that the rear is sagging more and more. Did a search and seems like theres alot of springs that have this problem. Can you guys WHO DONT HAVE REAR SAG let me know what your running. possibly post a pic. (most of the ones i found where from before the crash). if not, guess its time to look into coilover kits.... thanks

i have skunk 2 coilovers and it seems that the rear has dropped down about a half an inch since i put them on a month ago... i hope it doesnt continue to sag because its low enough as it is

here is a pic

my springs did the opposite. My front end sits a touch lower than the rear.

I've heard thats an inherent problem with Sprint. The only way to solve the sag would be to get a shock with an adjustable rear perch however, only Koni has shocks out and their rear adjustment is poor IMO. Email sprint and tell them what going on. I have a feeling those springs are not specific to the EP like the TEIN's causing sag due to incorrect spring rates. This is probably why I prefer the german spring makers, Eibach and H&R.

ya see they came on the car... and its just gettin worse well in my opinion.. im really starting to lean towards the h&rs but their cup kit is coming out *supposedly* and seems like a good deal..
