Good springs as far as handling? Any other suspension parts?

The H&R springs are stiff, there is definately less body roll when taking corners. Can be a little bumpy on harsh roads, but definately sticks to the ground nicely. The only complaint I have is that the rears are only lowered an 1.0" compared to the front 1.3".

It also depends if you have the revised suspension i.e. 03-04.5 model Z's compared to the 05-06 models. What year do you have?

Showbizz, Do a search on the revised suspension. From what i remember, the 03-04.5 Zs have a lower profile and stiffer sping rates then the 05-06. The 05 and up have a softer setting on the spring rates to reudce the Z's bumpiness (for lack of better word).

I thought the spring rates for the rear on the 05-06 models are higher
