I'm going to be lowering my AP1 next week on coilovers. I would like to do a 3 inch drop. Not for performance, just looks. For such a large drop are there any other mods I need? Stock rims and tires by the way.

 

Three inch drop is slammed hard. What kind of alignment are you planning?

 

I have no idea. That's what I'm on here for. Maybe -1.5 front -2 rear? Or more?

3 inch would hit your tires or at the very least make you rub at every speed bump or uneven patch. It would look bad ass when level though. I think you need just a slight roll to pull it off. I have 1.5 eibachs and I think I only have about about 1.5 left, maybe, maybe a few 2" before tire.

 

I can roll the fenders next week. Should I pull them too?

i just lowered mine about 2.25" in the front and 2.5" in the rear. I rub a little going over bumps 1.5" +/-, nothing serious though. I'm getting F+R bumpsteer kits in the near future as well as driveshaft spacers to keep everything semetrical, and my fender roller should be here in a week or so, and i'll be rolling all 4 and pulling the rear a little to fit my 17x9 +38, or atleast try to fit

here's mine after the drop, I had to raise the front a 1/4" to keep from rubbing the outer tab of the fender liner
