Stock suspenions questions

Is the OEM sport suspension on an 05 coupe lower than nonsport?

if so, by how much?

If you had sport suspension and 20'' rims, would you find it worth it to drop only 1/2 inch? (dont have the funds for camber right now)

I ask because i saw pics of other members ride with same EXACT wheels (20'' axis penta) and his looked higher, maybe his tires are fatter but it looked alot higher than mine

^^^+10 LOL Off-sets are everything that make it work or not...lol.

-OP-...Doesnt matter what the wheel dia is, its the dia of tire and off-set of wheel.

My set-up is:
F: 20X8.5 os 20 with 245/35/20
R: 20X10 os 25 with 285/30/20
Have moderate drop in front - no rub
Have extreme drop in rear - rubbed on turns and bumps so rolled fenders, now no rubbing in any situation.

Depends on how much you drop your car and the size of the tires
