Z springs front (1"drop)/ gcoupe springs in the rear (1/2"drop). Gives a near even drop. On stock sport shocks/struts. Ride is decent too. (314/342 spring rate...same as my stock spring rate...mates well with stock shocks/struts.)

The easiest and fastest way to get rid of the wheel gap.

1. Go to home depo and purchase a chain saw
2. park your car by a huge tree
3. cut the tree down

BAM!

You got no wheel gap

Thanks everyone for the replies, hopefully I can come to a conclusion of what I want to do. If I don't do a Z spring/strut deal, I may just purchase a full set of coilovers.

Texan, how hard was it to find just a set of rear coupe springs/z fronts? I feel like people wouldn't want to just sell 2 springs.

Someone would have to be selling a z/g cpe setup I would guess. What I did was buy full set of z springs and full set of g cpe springs and use z front and g rears. It's not expensive...was like 50-60 for z and 40-50 for g. The issue is availability of the 342 spring rate g cpe rear spring --not too common to go for sale.
edit: here is the set where you can pull the rears - super hard to find.

looks like the z springs are much harder to find now compared to 4-5 yrs ago...none for sale, even ck'd my350
