    Thanks for the welcome! I'll be doing a lot of reading here to learn all the little tricks - this side of modification is pretty new to me.

    Ah, yes, getting creative will be the name of the game. A few of the challenges, for starters:
    -Off the shelf parts are pretty much non-existent. No airbag kits, coilover suspensions, nope. I've got lowering springs and Koni adjustable shocks, that's as good as it gets.

    -The 900 has TONS of front overhang, very long nose past the front wheels. That means a higher chance of scraping on everything, and the body kit is very rare and unavailable in the US. So running fixed height might not be an option.

    -Wheels are hard to choose. The 4x114.3 bolt pattern is common FWD, but the car requires more of a RWD offset My best option looks like imported JDM wheels which typically have lower offsets, but come with combo 4 and 5 by 114.3 patterns.

    Don't know how I overlooked this... love that you took a platform few are willing to even attempt to modify. Seems like you are gonna have to get creative on getting it low, comfortably.
