Springs & PASM

Is there any disadvantage if i just install lowering springs on a car with PASM? If not, what springs would you buy?

I could tell you from my experience that coilovers are leaps and bounds better than springs. I had H&R's on my MY 06 and the ride felt uncontrolled and bouncy. I quickly switched over to Bilstien Damptronics and can tell the car feels much more planted and controlled. I would recommend leaving the car stock or going with a set of coilovers like the Bilstien, or KW.

I've had both. Coilovers were better, but the TechArts I put on my 997S with PASM worked great, and the handling was on-rails. Not the perfect solution, obviously, but great nonetheless.

Get the PASM-compatible PSS10s. I had H&R springs on my C2S and they worked fine w/PASM. Rode the same, just lower.
