well first id say get your suspension setup first. makes a world of a difference. with 18's depending on how far you want to be slammed it will be rubbing. what type of offset are you looking at?

if you are going with a mild drop. 18's are ok. but if you know that you are going to get coilovers then you might have to run like say 215/40/18. but i could be wrong.

Yup, I have them. They are in mint condition with less than 1k miles actually on them. They actually still look very brand new... If you plan on keeping your ride, I would invest in coilovers. I actually had the neuspeed springs before and it doesn't compare in any way to the coilovers. Simply because the coilovers are height adjustable and have dampening levels..

And what luck your in! I'm selling my coilovers!! let me know if ur interested!

i used to have the eibach prokit and it doesn't compare to coilovers. yes it might be a little more pricey but trust me you'll thank yourself ln the end.
