any rim size with a large/heavy system doesn't need a drop cuz the system lowers the car automatically.

ehh kinda, I mean my car didnt drop much in the rear.....i did the box in fiberglass so I saved A LOT of weight. when i did the floor of the trunk is when it took up weight because i did it in wood. the fumes from the FG started getting to me.

true. wheels, drop and aspec kit go nicely together, but they don't have to be done at same time.

Hmm...

RJs about 14-1800 right?
Eagle F1s about 1000
Drop w/EDFC is about 2300
Work is about $400 right?

About $5500...you can do it man, stop eating out and save the remaining $500!!

Well if your going the 19's route and don't want to slam it just get new lowering springs.

RJ's $1600
Falken 452's $600
Springs $200
Install $300

$2700 total, then you have $2300 left for a system in your budget. Also with just a 1 to 1.5 drop your not gonna have to worry about rubbing and such........
