I'm sure they're fine. I already had the Konis in a retrofit with Eibachs so it was a no brainer. I ran 400# springs for a few weeks and felt they were to soft for my liking.
-
There are a few sets out there but they use AGX struts which aren't the best thing outside of a normal drop. The fronts were revalved to match my springs. I'll get the rears done one day in the same way. I'm running 500# front and 400# rear
-
Koni struts and Eibach springs all the way around. Custom front mounts, the rears are stock with a spring hat. I'm still working out getting bumpstops mounted. Everything I've done hasn't worked out to well so far.

I forgot all about this thread till today. I've done some more work to the car, mainly it's that I built coilovers for the car and retrofitted a air splitter for the GTOs to my car.
-
As it sits once more, I have put on red LED tails but no pics with those
-
I took a few recent pics
-
Wheel bearing, fender, and went ahead and replaced the brake rotor as well. Wheel/tire are fine.
-
Pretty much, I just put new lugs on and they were tight. I never felt anything weird in the steering. Got it mounted also
-
I guess I never posted it here but my front passenger wheel decided to separate itself from the car, all the lugs stripped at the same time. Thankfully I was making a slow turn so nobody got hurt. The fender was pretty messed up so I got a new one and had a friend pretty of up for something different for now. Also had to replace the bearing and rotor on the car, otherwise the car is fine. A few coats of clear and it'll be thrown on.

Got them mounted
-
Soooo I just bought one of these Corbeau GTSII in black suede. Would've gone black/grey leather but that's way to much for me. Driver side only for now since the passenger seat is in great shape but the driver is destroyed.
-
No shots yet, those will come once I get spacers, lugs, and get extended bolts. I'm also going to order a new seat, red LED tails, and go a little lower when I rebuild the struts. Then I think I'll be done with the car for the most part. Actually I bought light blue then found Pontiac blue, but grabbed light blue by accident and i didn't know till after i painted everything. It stayed that way lol.

The wheels are done. For now...
-
****ty cell phone pic but you get the idea, GPOs painted and mounted Threw on the old new wheels after getting new tires. I can't decide if I'm going to go silver or back to black. These went on unfinished since my old tires were pretty much slick and I wasn't going to wait till I hydroplaned before swapping these. Still going with the can centercaps and I need to figure out what spacer to get for the rear to get them the same offset as the front. Rear offset, I know I'm going to need something like a 1/2", its 7.5 wide +37 Front offset, just where I want it, its 9" wide +40 with a 7/16" spacer which is ~11mm, puts the wheel at +29. Oh yea
