#18889, "Lowering"


          

Would a 1.75" drop look decent with 18" wheels? I have some adjustable coilovers now, but I found a kit with shocks/struts/springs that aren't adjustable.. I was wondering how that would look. TIA

cant you just use your coil overs to drop it 1.75" instead of buying more stuff? Are you looking for a differant feel in ride or some thing? And that might be a little to low for the car a 2g around here about ripped his front end off it was so low.

Yes, I want a different feel. I have stock shocks and struts that will probably need replaced shortly after the lowering anyway. I thought it'd be a better idea to do it all at once rather than have to take it all apart two different times.

That's a pretty healthy drop you're talking about....I highly recommend eibach prokit springs. I've got them on my car and I love the ride and the look.

So the coil overs are not on yet? then I would go with KYB AGX shocks all the way around. You can adjust them to 5 differant levels of firmnes. They are also only 90bucks each emoji
