Anyone know the spring rates for these?
I have a chance to pick up a set for cheap.
How do they compare to stock Z28, or maybe the 1LE's?
I don't want to lower this car too much so that is why I'm looking at this option.
I still want it to corner really well.
?

They lower the car by about an inch. I have the pro-kit on my car, so check out my garage. Granted, it will sit slightly lower with your car, since the v8 is slightly heavier.

As per cornering ability, its going to make the car stiffer and better handling, you will just get a rougher ride instead. (You feel all the bumps in the road)

The 1.3" drop is fine. I just want to make sure I'm putting in springs that are at least as stiff as stock.

There is no comparison, they are a ton stiffer.
