how're your springs treatin you?

i put some 22in lexanis on the machine and i gotta say it needs lowering pretty hardcore but what wit buyin the rims and the hollidays an all i dont have much scratch layin around n i know i dont really ever wanna drop all the coin involved in baggin it so im kinda thinkin springs now and later on shocks.

what i want to know is how many miles/months your springs were on before your shocks started showing real ware. and also i hear alot about eibach springs and even the stock srt8 springs but what about this brand h&R which do you fellas recomend? thanks in advance oh and happy new years

get mopar 1" springs, they dont put too much stress on your factory shocks

or buy the SRT take-off suspension.. again a 1" drop, plus all the advantages of the firmer, sprotier, ride

I went with the Eibach Pro springs and have had them on since last May with about 13K miles on them. They have dropped nicely and I haven't yet noticed any degredation in ride, but I did have to recently have the front fenders rolled. I like the look and am pleased with the performance so far--so much so, we are considering the same drop for my wife's Magnum RT.

i had them on for about 30k miles on 265 35 22 and was as low as taylormotorsports, yes u need to roll the fender so the edge doesnt catch when u hit a dip with the wheels turned but that easy to do. my buddy has them now and the spring have about 50k and still ride great......reason i took mine out was because i bagged my car....u wont be disappointed once u bag the car
