Body Kit with drop?

I just put 18" konigs on my car, but still have a significant gap between the tire and the wheel well. I want to get a kit after winter, so I am afriad to drop my car, in fear that the kit will make it sit too low. Can anyone help me out here? AOL Messenger name: Levittator21

get coil-overs, so you can adjust how high you want it

what size tires are you running? i have neuspeed sports(about 1.75" drop) sitting on 215-40-18, .6" bigger in diameter then stock. result:
went from 1 1/2 finger gap all around to 1 finger gap all around. not to mention my car is now .6" higher then with stock wheels making my drop to about a 1" drop. i have no problems with rubbing or anything. my car seems stock height with a small wheel gap tho so i'm thinking of getting a kit.

i would just suggest you get the kit first them the springs so that you know the ground clearance you have. but if you really want to drop it first and your paranoid i would just get the prokit. i live in cali and dont have to worry about the winter so i would still get the neuspeed sports regardless cause without a kit, it is just too high and you dont have to worry about scraping or anything like that. i'm sure neuspeed sports would be perfect with a kit, not sure how it would handle in snow tho.

Don't just get coilovers without adjustable dampining shocks.
