Lowering 03 TL-S Considerations ?
So I'm Lowering My NBP 03 TL-S Sometime At The End Of The Month
On Tein S.Tech Springs , I Have Ignalls Rear Camber Kit OTW , & Ordering The Ignalls Front Camber Kit Next Week , New Dampers, Also Have DRT Drill & Slotted Rotors & New Ceramic Pads (For Better Braking Plus My Rotors Are Shitty & Can Finally Paint My Calipers ) ... I would like to have Good Turning & Ride Quality Also ? But i wanna look Flush Siting Just Right on XXR 531s 18 x 8.5 With 225/(40 or 45)/18 Tires .. Anything I'm missing (Don't Want To Spend Unnecessary) Funds or Experienced Recommendations
Wanna Look Like Photo FYI

First off congrats, its like Christmas have a stack off nice parts to put on the ride!!!!!
I'm lowered on Eibach pro-kit its close to the same drop as S.Techs, but that will not put you as low as the pic you posted. I did need the rear Ignalls kit but not the front save your money if your not going lower. Also for the tires the 40's will make the wheel gap look bigger. For the ride quality make sure you use a good shock Bilstein / Koni its worth it in the long run. I'm running the Bilstein's, there awesome and the have a two position spring perch that will let you drop an other 1/2" lower. The ride is smooth and responsive handles so much better and even smother now on large bumps. Cant wait to see it put together

Alright thanks for the Feedback , My Mechanic said the Car will be low period , he's more worried about having clearance than me ... My Stock Suspension is still good & sturdy so he will basically reassemble the Stock Suspension with all the new goodies , I'm still ordering the Front Camber cause I will be a lil more lower in the front & So I will not be going threw low profiles within weeks ... Roads are not to bad in NC So I won't get some newer shocks just yet but will soon eventually probably go with just konis in the front & maybe 5mm Spacers for the wheels

Flush I'm down your way all the time used to live in P-ville. Cool to find someone close that is modding a 2g tls, seems like everyone around CLT is in a 3g. Hit me up some time, there is an local import meet at UNCC that I just found out about every Tue we could roll up in a pair of 03 TLS's.
