I know. I realized that once i started really gettin into the thread, and as i was takin more and more pix. Hah, i was just REALLY excited about finally getting my car lowered.

But....i AM thinkin of lowering the back, just not as much as the front, cuz i DO actually like that ''v8'' look or whatever. i dont CARE if its rice. I like the way it looks, and its not a BAD look for my car either. If i do lower it in the back, it'll just be to even it up with the front a bit. Not slam to the ground though.
A Sunfire with stock springs and good stock shocks will run circles around your car in its current state, are you familiar with the term understeer at all? You might as well be towing a jetski because it's going to plow through the turns like there is one behind it. SRT4's are jacked up in the rear for traction, it's too much power for a FWD and they have to have that extra weight up front in order to get any...but it also comprises the handling.

Anti-sway bars and shocks are by far more important for handling than springs or the ride height of a vehicle, lowering the car with stiffer springs only makes it less predictable while do little if anything for the handling. Handling is a balance of several components and right now you have 1 of the 3+, without the rest working together each one useless and actually makes things worse...
