Prokit = higher front and lower rear.
Comptech = lower front and higher rear.


Comptech, when I first dropped it.

Wow.. parking a WHITE car in front of a WHITE background FTL

If you get the comptech springs, is it enough of a drop that a camber kit is needed?

that is true. camber adjusters would be beneficial when lowering a vehicle. but i have 11,000 miles on my springs and my tire wear fine. it would definetly be something to look into.
