How low can you go....

Without having to buy a camber kit and having your camber all messed up? I want a conservative drop of around an inch if possible, because i hate how high the X model sits compared to my old coupe.

If possible, how low can i go with JUST springs? which springs would be best?

would any other OEM struts/springs combo drop me without having the tire wear issues?


I know this subject is beaten to death, but I can't find exactly what im looking for. Thanks in advance!

It varies too much, there's no exact answer. Drop the car to where you want it then see if the alignment can be brought back to spec.

U have an X... Not so much in the front. Rears I maxed out with shorter struts and 200mm springs on Bc coils but front, After I tucked the front tires, I clipped every suer cap on the floor, talkin about finger gap btwn cross member under the engine and the pavement...

Few days ago, they slammed 2nd gen sedan and Coils, Guy couldnt leave the block, came back to the shop to lift the front...
