Love the setups guys...

Maybe a repeat request but, can you please post rim widths, offsets, and tire sizes??? I just sold my coupe, and got a sedan, and I'm terrified about the rim sizes... please clarify.

Joe

I dunno if I am posting in the right forum but anyone know if the stock sport suspension for the '03 sedan can handle a lowering spring set? Or do I need to get new gas shocks?

Also, do I really need to get coilvers or are spings ok if I am not going to adjust my ride height?

That is a very skinny tire for the front and it will not fit properly. You need a 245/40 for the front. As for the rear, it will work, but will stick out past the fenderwell....

Plenty of people use just springs to lower ride height. You'll be fine.

Skeleton_cru- Do you like the ride with the HKS coilover set-up? Any upgrade adjustments to the camber i.e. the stillen front and rear kits?

I love it. Not much stiffer then stock (sport suspension), improved handling, great look. There is still some body roll, but I plan on installing Stillen sway bars. I do have slight negative camber in the front (rear is fine). I have about 5k miles on the tires and I can see a bit more wear on the inside edge. I plan on getting the 350EVO camber arms. I know they're pricey, but I'm looking long term. $850 camber arms vs. $1300 tires.

Skeloton_cru... any springs you might recommend or which ones to stay away from? You think I will need the camber kits for a 1"drop?

I highly recommend the Tanabe NF210s I just put on my 05. It rides so good, its unbelievable, definetely smoother than stock, with huge improvements in handling/cornering capabilities. Coupled with my Toyo T1S', I'm absolutely loving it.

I have heard good things about Tein springs. The H-Techs advertise a 0.7" drop and the S-Techs advertise a 1.3" drop. You probably wouldn't need a camber kit with the H-Techs.

Anybody with Tein springs on their sedan care to chime in here?
