What do you plan on doing with the suspension and do you have stock springs ?
My ride is a 2002 Camaro SS SLP #3296 with 30k, LTH, 3" Y, CME, Frost tune, K&N, ported TB, Blackwing lid, Bellows, MSD, Denso Iridium, and 85mm MAF, Bilsteins, Eibach springs, SLP strut brace, Adj. Panhard, TA Girdle, UMI, Pro 5.0, Nitto NT555
My wife has a 2004 GTO with the rare SAP, 18" wheels, K&N Cold Air System, MSD, Ported TB, Frost tune, Denso Iridium, Flowmaster cat-back, 3200 Yank, 75k

According to Sam Strano the valving between the Bilstein HDs and the SLP Bilsteins for the 1993-2002 F-body is the same, so buy whichever one is cheaper.

FYI, if you want to lower the front, but not sacrifice ride quality then consider the BMR 1" lowering front lower A-arms, and you can do the "hose mod" with the rear springs for about 3/4" drop. Also the Strano hollow swaybar set would improve the handling even more!

do you think the BMR 1" lowering front lower A-arms, and a strano rear lowering spring combo work together? another reason i hated lowering springs( specially on the front) was that it didn't leave the front suspension enough adjustability to get a proper alignment. 11 inch rims with 315/35/17 rear tire
