ek shock/spring and rim
im pretty much set on getting some h&r sport springs and kyb agx shocks for my 96 coupe. just a couple quick questions:
can anyone w/ this setup lemme know how the ride quality is? i've searched but most ppl just say "nice ride" w/o saying on what car. i just wanna double check my decision before buying.
also, anyone w/ this or a similar ~1.7-2 in drop have a problem w/ tire rubbing or bottoming out when riding on 17's? i'm trying to decide b/w 16 and 17 in kosei k1s. i think the 17s are a good balance b/w style and performance (ie light weight) but i don't wanna run into tire vs. fender issues
thanks for any help.
oh yeh, any pics of 96+ coupes w/ the above setup (w/ h&r's and agx's or w/ kosei's) would make my day. gracias

Re: ek shock/spring and rim (btatedash)
i have h&r sports on my 00 hatch. i'm running neuspeed/koni yellows with the perches set to stock height on the front and one notch lower in the rear. i'm running on 205/50-15 tires. i get a little scrubbing on fast turns or driveways in the front, but i'm still messing with the stiffness settings, which should help. i would imagine 17's would be worse, but you could try rolling your fenders for a bit more clearance. it's not quite your setup, but i hope that helps.
