8015, Lowering with 17's
Posted by 97RS, Mar-27-02 07:29 AM
I just want some advice on lowering after the rims come in. Ive heard only good thingd about H&R springs. Are skunk2 coilovers any good? Also wht is a good strut for a realitvely cheap price. Would stock struts last long if i was lowered? TIA.

Stock struts MIGHT last a few months being lowered. AS far as cheap struts go, tokico blues are around 50 bucks each, or you can get a set of illuminas (adjustable) for about 140 bucks more. How low do you plan on going? Your gonna have to get a camber kit, and of course an alignment. I got the H&R race springs with 17s. (2")

Yeah around a 2" drop. Anyone recomend the skunk2 coilovers or any others? Thanks for the response.

Are KYB GR-2 good shocks to replace the stock ones after lowering? Some people told me Tokico Blues are only $50 each but i cant find them for that price anywhere. I think im gonna go with the H&R Sport springs for the drop. TIA.
