Thumbs up Finally Im going to drop IT LIKE IT'S HOT..

Allright people. I just want to get some imput. Ive searched these forums like mad.

My set up is as follows
front 20 x 8.5 with 245 /30/ 20's
rear 20 x 9.5 with 275 /30/ 20's

I want to make the car sit perfect above the wheels with very little gap, however i do not want any rubbing issues or caster / camber issues as well. Of course I will have it Re alighned after the drop.

Eibach pro-kit. http://need4speedmotors.com/ quoted me at $ 370.00 installed
Tien S tech. 1.1 frnt .9 rear, $137.00 kit
Intrax kit 1.8 front 1.6 rear, doubt this woud work, $240.00 kit
Sprint 1.75 drop, $150.00 kit

What do you guys/Gals think. I think $370.00 for Eibach/installed is fair but I want the best drop (LOOK)and springs....

you can get away with Tein S Tech's. i'd stay away from teh intrax/sprint springs. if springs was the only option, i'd get the S Techs.

spend a couple more and get the Tein Basics.

Just added the Pro-Kit. Luv it. The stance is perfect. Not too high and not too low. Actually a more comfortable ride than the stocked sports suspension on my 06' 6MT coupe. $370 is a great price for springs and install. I paid $239 for the Pro-Kit and $160 for the install. Will get it aligned on Friday, allowing time for the springs to settle.

I would run the 35 series up front instead of the 30s. The front fender gap is still bigger than the rear, so run a 245/35 and 275/30. That's a nice combo.

Here's a pic of my front wheel (20x8.5) with a 245/35/20. Not stretched too much, not big either, and rides great, and protects your wheel lips.
