I'll be the other side of the coin. If you want to be able to slam your car, then get coilovers. If you just want a decent lower ride, then go Comptech. It's all a matter of tastes & desires.

Question

Hey so I am thinking about going with Eibach Springs, the pro kit. Do I need to get new shocks too? Also looking to put on some 18's wrapped in 225/40ZR's would that be a tight look? Or do I need a little more drop? I want a nice ride and clean look.

I m using the Eibach prokit, it lowered my car with 2 fingers wheel gap now.. It was a stiff ride, very good conering. You can add shocks later..just a matter of taste..but for me.i will definitely go for shocks later on....Coz i can lower my car more..hehe..

For 18"rim, it wont rub either
