    I told you dude, no lowering spring will get you low enough, you're going to eventually chop some coils, coilovers, or bags

      LOL I know I know I know... Really need to save up for some new shocks before I cut some coils. Am I correct at assuming that if I cut one coil that will be about another inch in drop height?

        no no no no....
        cut 3 coils at least. don't worry about shocks either.

        but for realisies. lower it.

        If your not doing this, your doing it wrong.

            umm, Idk about assuming if it'll be 1 inch per coil cut, but like if you have the time I would just cut one coil, lower it back down and see how it looks and just keep going. It only takes about half an hour to raise it up take springs out and cut them, the fronts that is, the rears, take more work. I would say cut 2 and a half. Also, idk if you should but new shocks. If you have the mechanical ability, I would shorten the shocks you have now so they don't blow.

              I think the dampening is off on them because it feels like I'm out on sea after a dip in the road.

                        Here is a random pic from sowo.

                        Will have some new wheels later this week. Maybe eventually some more low.

                              Alrighty! Got the new wheels on. Kelleners K-sports. Please give me your feedback. I think I need to go lower or slightly beefier tires like a 225/40 instead of 225/35 like I am running. Also the wheels need to be refinished and slightly undecided about colors (nothing crazy though).

                              Tell me what you think!
