I want to know myself. I found that Neuspeeds are $200, 1.25" drop.

Why mess with perfection?

I've found that if I lower the car, it would make mountain driving difficult due to debris.

If you lower it, will you use the lower center of gravity for handling, or is it just for looks?

Just curious this "mod vs using the mod" thing has bothered me lately.

Seriously though, the S2K is more than enough to get in trouble in its stock form.

The S2k is near perfect in stock form (looks wise), but i feel with 18's it just doesn't look low enough. I don't think lowering it could possibly make it handle worse, even on stock shocks. The car will not sit too low on the ground due to the bigger wheel package, so debris in the road will most likely not be an issue.

TKG 26, where did you purchase your springs...
Thanks for the pics....

I've received direct feedback from a fellow S2K driver that 18" wheels throws the balance of the car into disarray...

TommyAmrani,

Where did you get your rear spoiler, I really like the looks of it, could I see some more pictures if you have them, it looks a bit more raised than the ones I have seen previously.

Thanks

looks sweet TKG26. Never saw a silver with a hard top. But looks real good lowered. Good job! One small objection. lose the dealer tag holders...they distract me. Just a comment. Nice ride!
