hey David, I didn't intend on discouraging others from replying. I'm sure there are springs from several companies out there to give you the look and ride you want. The rear of mine is bagged and I love it. There are some drawbacks to airbags though. You need room to mount the tank, compessoer and valves. The compressor is loud if you consider mounting one inside the car. There are all kinds of things that can go wrong also. So you would need to carry spare parts. valves go bad, lines develop leaks, etc.

I saw somebody that sold the springs just for the rear ( I thought) maybe I should not think about doing that, I just thought that would level it up a little and get the look that I want. I do not want to lower it down like my last one, that makes it a little hard to get in and out. ( I am getting too old!!)

David I had just the back springs in for almost a year and it was fine then I finaly put all of them in. But Alomost any spring is good as long as you know what rate and height you want.

Hey Rocky, which ones did you use, how low etc, to get to look level, did you have to buy front and back and just use the back ones.

I know a few who have lowered just the rear to make the car more level looking. I used Eibach all the way around with KYB shocks. I suppose if I autocrossed it, it would be OK but just to be riding down the street, it's a tad harsh. You definitely feel the road.
