I have an 01 S2000 with 235/35/19's in the rear and 225/35/19's in the front with I believe a 45mm offset. Would someone please tell me just how much I would be able to drop the car? Maybe some suggestions on what method to go about lowering the car and what brands are high quality? Thank you in advance for any information you may provide.

 

this thread has been mentioned quite a bit.. but I'd say no more than 3 inches..

I'd say no more than about 5 feet. Any higher than that and I think you'd break something when it hits the ground.
Seriously though, 3 inches! It's only got about 4.5 inches of ground clearance to begin with. You wanna only drive it on airport runways?

 

Any suggestions on which products to use to go about lowering the car?

I run 235/40-18 front and 245/35-18 rear in the summer and I have a slight rubbing problem. I will get a minor rub on normal bumps and a heart stopping whack on big holes. The look is fine. I thought it would need a drop but it looks good. I don't think it can handle a drop right now.

 

Dun go any lower than 2.5 inches.. or ur camber/alignment will mess up big time

 

xviper: you joke ... but after crashing my s2k, jumped about 3.5 feet in the air and traveled at least 14 feet the tires were ok... with the exeption of the one that got cracked in half from the curb.

 

Once you get to know me a bit better, you'll realize that a lot of what I say on this forum is in jest. I come here to have fun. But when someone needs serious help, I can be serious (honest).

 

I have lowered mine 3 inches but I also have a body kit and it pretty much sits on the ground. I really like how it looks though. The down side of it is you go through tires fast. But then again its just tires. I am running 18s right now. Here is a pic for you....
