I just recently had 18's put on my car and the back of my SVT looks great but I want the front maybe lowered and inch or two. I still have stock SVT suspension, what can I do to the front that isn't to expensive and will still give me a good ride.

H&R's only drop the front end, the rear stays nearly stock height.

I have a similar issue with my SVT and asked a similar question on this forum a few weeks ago. Currently, Suspension Techniques is making me a custom set of springs to try and level out the car a little. I was hoping to have them any day now so I'll let everyone know how they turn out.
