One of my friends has a full kamanari kit with 18" wheels and sportlines. His car looks dropped to the ground and I have never heard it rub. I have the same sport line kit with 17" wheels and it looks pretty sweet. The prokit sux.

If u already have a kit- Get prokit, if u are stock-bodied, get sportlines. The sportlines IMO look better, but it took me a while to get used to the drop, but it might do the same with the pro kit. I have 17's and I love my sportlines and the aggressive, stance. If your kit is good quality, it can hold up to minor scraping, I've been stupid and actually hit a drop off b/c I didn't pay attention. Thought for sure front was cracked, got out, nada. As long as u don't hit something at a nice speed, u should be kewl. Sorry for rambling.

It will depend where you live.. For me i live in NNJ and travel in NYC alot so 1.3 was the max I could go. But if you have roads like cali I would go with the 1.8's. (i know this cause i bought my car in cali and brought it to NNJ--and damm do I miss cali roads, no damm manholes or sewers like out here)
