#18277, "Inexpensive Spring/Shock Setup...."


          

I'll be ordering my 18s in 2 weeks, and I'ma gonna HAVE to eliminate that nasty ass gap, so I'm looking for springs giving a 2" drop and some nice shocks. What are some cost effective options? Are adjustable shocks a must? Someone please help because I'm in the dark some here, but I don't want to put lowering springs on stock shocks.

Thanks in advance emoji

if you look on ebay, there are usually some tokico spring and strut combos going for about 350. and adjustable struts are not required

$230 for 4 springs and 4 shocks... don't know how good they are, but can't beat the price.

Anyone know anyone who can help me tune this in the Pittsburgh area (Greensburg)?
