Lowering Springs for S2000
 

Just put 18's on my s2k. Now i need to close the wheel gap. Any recommendations on lowering springs. I would like to keep my ride like it is now.

Thanks,
Jeff

i also have 18's on my car, i drop it with the intrax springs i bought off nopi.com
it was an inch and a 1/2 drop it claimed but they've been on there for months now and the car only dropped 1/4-1/2 inch max. i think this is cause i still used my stock shocks, but i havent had any troubles with them yet, and people warned me they would "blow out" but as i said its been a few months with no troubles.

go with KG/MMs

here are picture of how the car looks with my drop, its very little change to the stock hieght, i acually wanted to be lower then it is.http://members.aol.com/viper72711/my...mtbrand=AOL_US http://members.aol.com/viper72711/my...mtbrand=AOL_US

HKS SF5 Springs work well for me
Front -27mm Spring Rate: 5.1kg
Back - 29mm Spring Rate: 6.5kg

Isn't it true that lowering the car just by springs would hurt handling?

i'm not aure if it does hurt to drop a car by only springs, the only thing it will hurt is the shocks because it will but more stress on them because they are at a lower position then orginally set by the factory, i will be completing the suspention mod very soon with a matching set of koni shocks i'm hoping when i do this it will give it that dropped look i want.

i got neuspeeds. -1.4".

I wouldn't go any lower than that. My car is pretty low..(on stockers)...

that's why you go progressive... KG/M racing springs seem to look the best with 18s and are IMO the best spring to get if using only springs and no aftermarket shocks, the race springs wont' kill the shocks because they aren't linear

I got neuspeed 1.4 drop as well but after a few months it settle a little more. I think its about a 1.6 drop.
