9919, 14's to 16's

Alright, I have a 95 RS with the ever-so-gorgeous stock 14" wheels. I just bought some stock 16"s from 99GS and was wondering how much of a drop I should put on. I'm not looking for something really aggressive, just a nice stance would be fine.

personally i'd go no lower than 2.5 inches. you'll still have some wheel gap though.

yeah Ive personally seen 2.5" on stock 99 gs rims and it is pretty low. I think you are looking more for a 1.5-1.75" drop.

My springs have dropped about 1.5" and it looks good. Im just waiting for them to settle and I should have a 2" drop.
