Greddy Body kit and Volk 19's... what drop?

Hey everyone, Just wondering what kind of drop you would put on a G coupe witha Greddy kit and 19" volks.

I've got the .6" Drop TEIN springs in my garage, but i've never pulled the trigger.

Now that it isn't my dailer driver I'm considering going with the ~1-1.5 inch drop... but I do need to drive the thing without ripping the bumper off lol...

I kinda wanted to wait till I put on at least my front bumper to see what I wanted for a drop... I just want it more now, just not suree what


TIA, pics always makes threads cool =)

Also I know if I do the big drop, I'm looking at a camber kit-- at that point I might as well do a TEIN basic shouldn't I? Doesn't that have adjustable ride hight?

i have the greddy fron as well and there really isn't much of an option when lowering it, you can slam the rear, but you can only lower your greddy MAYBE an inch, but then again you'll destroy it

hell with the front bumper.. drop it as low as possible. It'll never look low enough.. I have a 1.25 drop and wished I can go slightly lower.

your front already looks low with the new bumper but I would go with the greddy basics kit as well. There are a number of Greddy twin turbo G's that are slammed. Just be careful and you'll be fine.

he may not but i do. my front is dropped over 2 inches. in fact the front bumper only sits 2.5 inches off the ground. lol

but i say dump it as low as possible. i have a set of tanabe df210s that will help you accomplish just that.
