Im looking for springs to put on my LS to lower it the same length as the eibach pro kit but i need a harder spring so i dont bottom out, my friends have a galant and aa elantra and they've lowered it and they dont bottom out at all (at least according to them) is there any such spring out there and can you tell me what it is?

I have Eibach springs and have not bottomed out, if you mean fully compressing the suspension and grinding the undercarriage as bottoming out. On the other hand I do have to be careful on steep driveways & sharp dips as the front can drag. That is the result of lowering the car and reducing overall clearance.

all the lowering springs are progressive spring rates - meaning they get stiffer the more you compress them. that's how they allow a lower ride but keep the car suspension travel from bottoming out.
they are not just shorter.

yes i meant about dragging the front of the car. I guess i have to deal with the problems of lowering the car. Thanx guys for your help.
