What kind of drop/suspension for my car?
 
http://members.aol.com/wh0r/images/s2kssr3.jpg

This is my car. Basically, i'm happy with the stock height, but i'm crazy with modding, and sure, lower looks better. I"m wondering though, is it possible to just go with a lowering spring setup and get away with out rubbing? IF so, which springs would offer me the ideal drop. Ideally, I don't want to have to roll fenders or run negative camber. If it's not possible, then i'll probably leave it at stock height for the time being. I don't mind if i'll have minor rubbing (big dips in a road, super inclines, etc.).

My setup is:
front offset 49
rear offset 55

tires:
225/45/17 Front
255/40/17 Rear

after some searching, it seems like spoon or eibach might be ideal since they only offer a 1" drop. Any other suggestions?

You're not low unless you got a lil rub!? :LOL:

H&R offers 3/4 of an inch drop iirc.

i'd recommend swift sport machs. I just installed a set. The drop is even, no rubbing, no break-in period, no sag.

how much of a drop did you get on your swifts? I can't decide between those and the Eibachs

Should consider some coil-overs so that you can have it adjusted to your to height you want.

swifts are nice but I think they are 1.5" which might be pushing it with my setup.
