Look in the "for sale" area....there are usually people selling good stuff. Like me for instance, I'm in the process of selling my eibach sportlines(only cause I wanted the prokit instead). I've always had springs....so I don't know much about coilovers, so I probably can't help ya much that way. Anyways, that's a good place to start. good luck!

what about air shocks??? lol

get springs not coilovers

Do u think a 2inch drop will do? If so u should beable to pick of some springs for aound 150. Also if its a 2inch drop i think u can do the rear camber mod and ur front should be ok.

i'd suggest Eibach prokit springs. A 2 inch drop maybe too low for that bomex front.

i vote coilovers u can adjust them how you like your car....and plus when u go off roading you can just raise it up..:)

Coilovers are horrible -- i have never heard of anyone having a good experience with coilovers that slip over shocks -- maybe with real coilovers you would have a good ride -- but then again you don't have the money. I got some progress springs on my car -- the drop is pretty far -- and they were cheap 150 shipped I believe.

Sounds a lot like you are going to be using stock struts though -- so I am not sure you would want that severe of a drop. Look online www.dsmtrader.com for some Eibach Pro Kits.

Like clay said -- you have a kit -- it probably cost a lot of money -- and you will have serious issues if you are too low.

Good luck.

Good advice from most everyone on this thread.

Forget the cheap-o coilovers. You get what you pay for. Buy some performance lowering springs and struts.
