> [@Jim1234664](#): > > yeah i also love the 18x8 track wheels for the 570bhp car The 6 bolt set up really limits the options for rims. I thought the stock rims are 8.5 but I could be wrong. The FG2 shocks are 1,200 bucks and a couple hundred more for the Eibach springs. Not sure on Ground control coilovers but a lot of the guys on the forum upgrade to them. ---

The ground control setup are a great option if you don’t want to spend the money on a true coilover. At least for an f body setup they can be had for only about $100-$150 more than a set of lowering springs. Plus you get to pair them with the strut/shock of your choice.
