ARE YOU SURE THAT YOU WANT THE SPORTLINE, THE PROS ARE PROGRESSIVE SO THAT THEY DON'T JAR YOUR TEETH, BUT OFFER INCREDIBLE HANDLING IMPROVEMENT. ALSO SPORTLINES WILL PROBABLY NECESSITATE THE USE OF NEW SPORT SHOCKS (THEY WILL BLOW OUT THE GUTS OF THE STOCK SHOCKS).

But WHERE can one BUY the Sportlines? I have never seen a set for sale for a PT Cruiser!

Kirby, if you where making mods a little at a time...would you go for after-market sway bars first, or would you opt for lowering-springs? I though I'd buy one thing this summer and do the second next spring. I already installed the factory rear-sway on my GT but I can hardly tell the differance at all.

FYI - only Eibach rear springs are progressive wound. Front are linear.

I am there. My Prefferences:

Springs - Biggest difference in handling

Eibach pro (progresively wound, are no rougher than stock on the little "bumpies", but are great as you press the PT har into corners.

Shocks - Next biggest improvement

Tokico Performance - Biggest bang for the buck
Sway Bars - Improve handling, but exact the most cost in rough ride

Sorry CraigO--see what you mean. I thought I had seen them, but it was probably this site:

http://www.autotrucktoys.com/ptcruiser/

since they advertise "sport" springs. Having visited Eibach's web site, though, I would agree with you--I don't think they're available for the PT.

Sorry I steered you wrong.[:I]
