sportlines are badass i have them on my car right now, and my car handles like its on rails, im LOW though...lowest 2gnt at all the meets and the lowest ive seen pretty much but im changing it for my 18's
heres a pic, these are 15's! LOL
edit: sent out your coilpack yesterday, shipping was 14$ its all good though, someone bought my stock wheels and gave me 4$ extra, so your 8$ + 4$ paid for it pretty much dont worry about it though, just let me know when you get it

sportlines/tokico illuminas- 17" rims, 215/45/17 tires... no complaints about the ride- except for the occasional scrapes my front gets pulling out of parking lots

How the hell do you guys get around? I'm on sportlines, and I think my FMIC decreased the clearance; so I'm scraping everywhere

yea, youll have to re-learn how to drive, seriously
i have pro kits, the sportlines were just a little too drastic for me. i still scrape occasionally. youll have to watch the road more closesly now for dips and potholes and whatnot :o
they look tight though

i really havent had a problems with tire wear, even at 4+ inches. Now i have about two inches between the tire and wheel well, but the ride is horrible. Id put up pics of my car before with the lower drop but i cant find anywhere to host pics at the moment.

Sportline springs:
July '03, half a tank of gas and the system in the back.
April '04, 2 gallons of C17 and no system.
Yes, they are a bit low. I wish that I went with the Pro kit springs. Although, things should be done right the first time, so in theory I should have just saved up for Teins.
