Skunk2 Lowering Springs.

I got new Tenzo R Psycho Rims( White ), 17's with 205-40-17 Nankang Tires. I plan to go with Skunk2 Springs which I saw on www.nopi.com for like $159. Drop is 2.25 Front and 2.50 Rear. what do you guys think how would the drop look like ann how many inches people drop their 7th gen cars with 205-40-17.

I read about skunk2 and seen some of their products in action, but I am wondering is Skunk2 really as good as people claim?

I have Skunk2 Springs on my ride. They DEFINITELY did not lower the car anywhere near 2.5". Take a look at my gallery. I have 17" wheels also, with 215-45 tires.

compared to my prokits springs the skunk2 springs only dropped my car about maybe .5-.75 more so im thinking that my car is only dropped 1.5f and 1.75r ill try to get some pics with the prokits and skunk2s side by side its a smooth ride but on the stiff side. hey evopanop do you have aftermarket shocks and struts?
