Alright, I wanna get some springs. I need to know how low I should go. I am sittin on 18's. Is 1.5 good...too low...too high? I want it lowered so that there is a noticeable difference between the way it looks now and when I put the springs on it. Any suggestions on how low to go and what kinda springs to buy? Are HR's any good?
Thanks

well I have a 1.5in drop (progress springs) and im on 17/50/215's and most people have 18/40's so I think mine setup is the average overall size for 18's (if im wrong let me know). Check my sig pic. I think you will be fine w/ a 2in drop, but you have to consider how the streets you live around are. When I was on my 14's I scraped on everything, even though the streets around here are almost perfect, but going in and out of places was a bitch

ok since i was called out of my hovel...2 inch is good enough, thats the drop i feel you start to really notice. your rear tire will have about 2 fingers gap with 18s, the front is a different story. its not until you take it down about 4 inches or more that youll eliminate the front gap. with 18s you wont have to go quite as low as i did...18s are equal to the stock 16s with 55 series tires...my 19s with 35 tires are about 3/4 inch bigger total.
