Megan lowering springs review!!!
Wassup Guys, I have been searching this forum for awhile now and i haven't found any reviews about these lowering springs by MEGAN. I know that there are a lot of members on here who recommend Megan coil overs, however i wasn't willing to spend that much money on coils for this daily driver.
So after reading the DIY on this subject i attempted to do this under the supervision of my mechanic. Five hours later......... this is the outcome. The pics you see below were taken within 24 hours of the install. It appears that the front dropped about 2 inches and the rear looks like it dropped about an inch. I hope after awhile they will drop a little bit more.
Oh yea and by the way as far as Ride Quality is concerned, these springs ride really nice. cornering has improved drastically. I do feel the road more than before but i will say that after putting these springs on I-4 for an hour, they really surprised me on how comfortable and smooth the ride was. Installation wasn't bad. The front was easier then the rear.
Stats: 2000 Gs3
MSR 20x8 with 225/35/20 V12's & 20x10 265/30/20 V12's
Megan Racing Lowering Springs 2" front & 2" rear
So let me know what you think....

OP, nice car.
The springs wont sag. I drove around like that for a really long time and finally decided to go with some RCAs to lower it some more. I didn't have much expectation for the springs but with some Bilsteins Sports I'm actually satisfied.

Go with some RCA and the ride comfort will be exactly the same except you'll be lower.

If you're on springs it's better if you buy F & R RCA's that way it'll lower evenly and it cost around $500 for both set. So the springs plus RCA's cost about as much as Megan EZ's plus it comes with new shocks.
