Really? you never scrape? Every time I go through a speed bump that's a little too high, then I'll scrape. I haven't really had much experiences driving lowered car, so maybe that's why. I even tried the "side attack" when going over the bumps but it still scrapes!

I went Tien S Tech. I love the way the car sits and the ride is still great

Thanks. can you post some pics gabster please so I can see

eibach 1" i think it gives a nice stance... ride quality to me same as stock maybe a hair stiffer but nothing too noticeable at all. (yes I'm on stock shocks)

IMHO whatever you do just don't slam the car, thats the worst thing you can do ( if you care about performance at all) anything more than an 1" on stock suspension components = harming handling just my .02

I have neuspeed, I don't like them for my type of driving with mildly aggressive wheels, the rear springs are not firm enough.

But it did close up all the wheel gap, so the car looks way better

Tein's here, Love the drop I'm at 90K miles now though... Need new struts. Looking to get coilovers, soon incase anyone has some for sale

Old Rims,



New Rims..




As you can see, The wheels make a big difference on how your lowering job appears too. Personally, I like the lowering of my black rims...But like the OE look better

Go for some coilovers

will the espiler springs work with my wheels or will it rub? also can I run a oem front spoiler with out it dragging everywhere? Also where can i find these springs
i would need to know or rather we would need to know what offset you are running but more than likely you would need camber and minor fender roll, at that point i'm not one to do that to my car so i would choose tein s techs.
