Hey guys,
I am planning to lower my 2000 TL. What is my best choice???
I currently have 17x7 TYPE S RIMS on the car. will I have any rubbing issues after lowering?? I am planning to just replace my Springs and NOT the struts, is that ok???
What kind of springs should I use? I want between 1.5-2 inch drop and I do not want my car to drive bad and harsh, I like to feel the comfortable Stock springs ride and the agresive look of the lowering springs.
which one should I choose to have a nice and solid ride?
1/ EIBACH PRO-KIT LOWERING SPRINGS
2/H&R LOWERING SPRINGS
3/ TEIN S-TECH S.TECH SPRINGS
PLEASE HELP
Thank you in advance

The ride is going to be a little harsher no matter what springs you use because you are going to have less travel in the suspension. I have yet to take pics and post them on this site but maybe this will be my motivation. I love the way it looks, not to low but got rid of the wheel gap. And I can definitely tolerate the ride. Pics soon..
I have 130K miles on my 2000 TL
what do you suggest?
thanks

Thanks all.
Will I notice an UNEVEN or FAST tire wear OR a balence/allignment problem after doing this??
Do you guys think I should also replace my struts wich have 130K on them or not? If yes, what type of struts are good for my ride that will work the best with H&R springs? and how much for all four??
Thanks

I have H&R sport springs and I am thinking to get Blistein Sport shocks instead of getting Tein cuz now I am broke
![Why Me](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/whyme.gif)
Is that the best combination H&R Sport + Blistein Sport shocks?? Since both of them are made in Germany LOL
Thanks.
