Hey
I have a 98 Spyder Gs-T.

I heard that lowering your car makes it somewhat faster?
Clarify this for me please.

Also I want to drop my car because I tink it will look better?

Other questions.

-Lowering means better handles?

Thank You
 
Eibach makes good springs.

1) Lowering your car does NOT make your car faster.
2) If you don't like the wheel gap, yeah it will look better if you drop the car,
3) Lowering means better handling IF you upgrade your shocks. If you just get springs, and keep your factory shocks, your handling will suffer.
 
Searching may help you answer these questions easier and quicker...

Anyway, like DGajre777 said, lowering your car will NOT help you go faster. If done right, however, lowering a car with springs AND aftermarket struts will help your car feel more 'planted' to the road, especially in cornering, take-offs, etc. Your car will probably look better lowered...just choose an ideal (ie. not extreme) drop that suits your car. Also remember that it will mess with your alignment so you'll definitely need an alignment and probably camber kits (depending on how low you go).
