Can anyone recommend a great after-market suspension kit?
 
One of the gripes I have about my C6 is that it has a completely standard suspension - no Z51, no magnetic ride, nothin! Right now just about any good driver is going to spank me on a windy road.

Can anyone recommend a good after market suspension kit (sway bars, springs, etc)? Even better, anyone have a kit installed?

*BUMP*

No one with after market suspension upgrades? Or no one that's happy enough with them to share?

Have you considered checking out the "bone-yard"? I can only imagine how frustrating it must be to realize that "I should've ordered this option..." too late. I got mine with all the features I wanted to hopefully not settle. Best of luck.

PM Starship, He might know he investigated front and rear for his car.

I have used HOTCHKIS sway bars before, and I'm about to install them on my Vette, and they can't be beat. Along with the sway bars I'm also putting Edelbrock Performer IAS Monotube Shocks. I haven't used the shocks before so this will be the first for that. The sway bars are a little pricey, but excellent quality.

The sad thing is that doing the after-market upgrade may cost a whole lot more the the initial option. I feel for you.

I'm definitely envious of your Z51 SilverSurfer. Thanks for the recommendations gorichb - Turns out that site has suspension stuff for the C5, but not the C6 :(

On another forum I frequent a member has the Pfadt set-up on his C5 Z06 and absolutely loves it. You might want to look into their suspensions. Here is the link to their site: http://www.pfadtracing.com/

What he said. Throw on a set of Pfadt adjustable coil overs and adjustable sway bars and you will own the road.
