im planning on lowering the car soon...i was look at H&R Springs kuz most of the people on the forum recommend it...im also planning on getting OEM bodykit later...so my question is...how low would u guys recommend to drop it...H&R Sports or Racing...?

izzo

double check on that oem bodykit, i hear they are discontinued and there are not many left, as for dropping it, 2 in. front 1.5 in. rear that could be pushing it though depending on the size of the tires u plan to use, u might need a camber kit for the rear

i got the sports, and it dropped my sh!t low. Almost to low.

ghost?

i got eibach sportline springs on mine and its great!

ghost?

i would say eibach is more reliable than h&r

z3Ro

yea...i read that lowering it 2 in. or below requires a camber kit or else it cause unormal tire wear...but im getting my bodykit n rims later down the road kuz my tires r brand new when i got my car...n im not thinking about have subs so it wont b bogged down the rear that much...so do u think itll b right to drop 2 in. front n 1.5 in. rear?...or more in the rear...GHOST how r the eibach doing ya...is it still as comfy as the stock ones? OPTIK how low is urs?

i ended up taking my H&R's off last year, my car acted like a snow splow in the winter, very annoying.

its darkangelwing0@gmail.com ...like a snowplow?...what do u mean...the cold air stiffened the springs or something?

I like the idea of coilovers b/c i heard of a lot of people having problems with the front drivers side dipping after dropping it

REDLINEN

Im slammed 3" all around and 3000 miles later no camber problems!

lol...good lord 3 inches...do u have a bodykit?...must look pretty kool...yea...coilover r kinda on the xpensive side...tho i was looking at them...lol...just imagining...lol...but yea...i was looking at the camber kits too...but i dont really wana drop it that low tho...kuz my college has speed bumps...so...lol...u get the point...i was thinking bout 2 in. or less...2 in. if i have to...but 1.75 would b better...

REDLINEN

Nope no bodykit and no camber kit and no weird tire wear but i did have a custom alignment shop do the alignment and the tech said i have no camber issues and i will have pics up soon just have to load them from my digicam

I have the Sports and a body kit and in my opinion i think he front needs about .3 more inches and the back needs about an inch.

ndawood

i dont have the body kit but i think the car could do with a little more of a drop... but the ride is great so its all good i guess...
