wanting to drop my G....

SO MANY opinions on this!! Here is what I'm wanting to achieve and hopefully someone can tell me what's best for what I'm wanting to accomplish. Right now I have the stock 18's but I'll have 19's soon. I still want a nice ride and not super bumpy. I've been told the Z h-techs are the way to go. Thoughts?

h-techs are a pretty conservative drop...how low do you what to drop it?...do you already have a camber kit??...as for the ride on h-techs, i haven't heard any complaints, i believe they are pretty close to stock spring rates...check out the sticky at the top of the brakes & suspension forum.

is all personal reffence.. i have tokico D spec + tein s tech which gives me a nice drop i also have 19"s.. ride quality is good, the good thing about Tokico D spec is you can adjust the gas shock to hard or soft.. which ever fits your driving skill.. i adjust mine 3 1/2 turn from hard for normal day driving.. if you want to see how the drop look like let me now i have a couple pix

I have the d-specs as well with tanabe df210 springs. the drop is sick! but might be just a hair too low. I bought the spc camber kit for the front and rear which is an absolute must unless you like to spend a lot of money on tires. As you can see from my sig, most of my money has been put in my suspension and I think it is worth it. If ride quality is more important than asthetics, then I would recommend looking at H&R springs as well. Not a very dramatic drop, but great ride quality. The best advise I can give you is don't cut corners or try to take short cuts. Your suspension is worth the money to get it right the first time. Hope that helps and good luck.

the only problem with the z htechs is that the rear is higher, which sucks. the stechs are pretty low.. so if youre looking for conservate, there arent really any good conservative springs out there except for eibachs.
