dropping the tl

Please tell me if this is a good enough drop. Im going to get DROPZONE SPRINGS 2.5" in front and 2.25" in back for my 99 tl. Is this too much of a drop, or will it be good?

I would go for H&R Sport springs: 1.7" Front and 1.5" Rear. Manymembers here uses these springs and all have positive comments about them.

I'm not too sure about Dropzone springs tho.

If your going to drop your car that much, just be prepared to buy a camber kit, and eventually a new set of aftermarket struts.

Does anyone think that 2.5" in front and 2.25" in back is too low? I have the stock 16"s with 45 series tires. How much gap you think I'll have?

Hmm for a drop that aggressive you will definitely need a camber kit.

Just me, but if I were going to drop below 2 inches, I'd think about getting adjustable coilovers/suspension setup...
