WHAT DO I NEED, SUSPENSION Options

[shvdcelica]

I need to know what would be the best way to go about lowering my car without spending a lot of money?
1. coilovers?
2.lowering springs?
3. is there a complete kit?

Here are some pics i think i wana lower a inch or so i dont drive my car alot its not a daily driver so i can give a lil. I dont wana lower to much because my bodykit is molded on so if i hit something its bad news.

i say leave it alone

[shvdcelica]

Most people say it needs lowered that is has to much gap between the fenders and the tires.

i duno how it is in oklahoma, but there a buttload of crappy streets out here in riverside / southern california area. also goin up driveways / entrances at different places. i would just leave it at that. but, since its NOT ur daily, i think u should just get some TEIN s-Tech springs with KYB shocks. the S-Techs lower it to about 1.5 inches and the KYB shocks are good replacements..they are same as OEM but can handle the springs

good luck man!

plus, the S-Tech + KYB price is relatively low budget, so if u have more money u can upgrade the shocks to something different as well as the springs

**Edited the word NOT**

Would it look dumb if i put a bigger tire on it instead?

[bccentaur3]

Yes, really dumb. Bigger tires on those rims will make the car look like crap. If its not your dd then get teins and kybs. You'll be happy.

Wanna Buy my set.

KYB GR-2 with Drop Zone Springs 1.8 fr and 1.7 rear I think.

Shoot me an offer I live in AR

If i buy coilovers all the way around can i lower my car that way? without buying lowering springs?

if you buy coil overs you can adjust how low or high you want your car to look.

You will not need to buy lowering springs if you buy a coil over spring set.

I do recomend you buy a good set of coil overs though. cheap ones tend to be too stiff and make the car a pain in the butt to drive.

bigger wheels and/or tires will lift the car a little higher, then when you lower it it won't be as low to the ground. I don't know what size wheels and tires you have now, but maybe some 18's with a 225/45/18 tire or something. of course, that's really expensive to lower + get new wheels and tires.
