it'll be as low as my car. Trust me it's pretty low. If you aren't use to driving a really low car i'd stay away from the sportlines. They also rub a little bit under hard driving w/ 18's and you'll need a serious camber kit.

Chris, you don't need a cmaber kit with bags? Or are you talking that you only ride at a height in specs?

rodxx, yea that's my car w/ my old rims. Also, my car makes a pop and sounds like something is about to break, i've gone through everything, even had friends go through and had the dealer go through it but no one can figure it out. It sounds like the car is just gonna break!


Delusions, I personally did not need a camber kit, but others have.

I really should, but I don't. I get mad inner tire wear since I ride so low sometimes. In all actuallity, you can lift it up to have no camber problems, but that's no fun. You get air to ride low without bouncing all over creation. So since I ride tucked to the rim, no camber kit in the world will help.

Depending on how long my tires last, I may go back to stock height or jsut springs. I kind of miss a soft ride and being able to drive wherever I want.

Who knows....

i have koni yellows and the prokit and im absolutely loving it.. you have the options of lowering your car to different perch levels and adjust the stiffness by the turn of a knob.. personally the best combo available... in my opinion
