Re: Want some opinions....help!!

well i'm on eibach sports and tokico blues and i loooovvvee it. it's comfortable and it rarely scrapes. of course coilovers are going to be the most versatile but they aren't cheap.

what ever you go with, figure this:

beauty= pain, that's what mamma always told me...

the lower you go, the more you're gonna scrape, but if you're somewhere with flat terrain and a low amount of bumps, potholes, etc. then you might want to stay in the middle.

my drop's probably around 1.4-1.5 and i love it.

^yup, what he said.. and if you ever plan on getting a lip kit you need to keep that in mind as well (greater % of scraping the bigger the drop)

I suggest you search around for a good while though to come up with your own decision though

Re: Want some opinions....help!!

Thats exacaly my fear, living in miami theres always construction, their trying to turn this into new york so they keep building and building, theres always potholes uneven streets, its horrible which is why i'm scared to go to low.

Coilovers have been a thought, i always say if your gonna do it do it right.

I mean i see some people with drops like 2.0 -2.3 and i'm afraid that'll be way to low. can you post up a picture of your car So.Ill.Em2, just to get an idea of your numbers. Thanks!
