Default Buddyclub question

I've seen pics of their coilover setup, but that's a little out of my price range. Does buddyclub make just regular lowering springs? I'm planning on going with a set of aftermarket springs on Koni Yellow struts.

I'm looking for a tight finger fit in the wheel gap...would buddyclubs be good for that? I had Eibachs on my first S2K and that wasn't low enough.

Thanks!

They dont make regular springs, only coilovers, and there Spec 1 coilovers are great. I know there quite expensive, $1,200 to $1,800 depending on the site, but thats comparable to all the other coilovers. The Tein Basics start at the same price, only thing + about Tein is the EDFC support, which Im quite sold on, but still, I like eyecandy It really depends on you and what your looking for. Me and my buddy Chris are going to get a set of Buddy Clubs, I decided the EDFC wasnt that big of deal

I thought the Buddy Club N+ was pretty cheap.

There about $1,300, which is the same price as the Tein basics. If there coilovers are anything like my Spec III exhaust, then there good!

Okay so then my other question...if the drop I'm looking for is one tight finger in the wheel well, what springs would you recommend? Again, I'm going with Koni Yellows cause I can't afford coilovers right now.

Espelir's offer a great drop and a nice ride. That paired with Koni Yellows on the low perch will get you at (or slightly lower) than what you're looking for.

Check ebay, they have BC N+ going for about $950. You'll be much happier in the long run with a full coilover.
