by the way i have aftermarket rims and tires. 15 inch with 50 serious tires 6.5 wide

 

o god..
wow do some research before you post
if you lower your car 3 inches period your going to blow your shocks
and 3 inches at least?? it should be 3 inches at the most, there is no reason to lower your car more than that. it wouldnt be very drivable

 

50 serious tires

 

get some function over form coilovers, talk to pedro he has a myspace page that can help you.

Never been done before. Sorry we cant help. Please do NOT EVER CHEAP out on stuff for your car. EVER. Period. Replace sturts with some after market that are made to handle the lowering.

 

cheapway=cut stock springs=shitty ride, but it is the cheapest way and u can lower it as far as u want

 

Lower it to a 2 finger gap or 1.5.

if u cut just one coil it could be safe for a hwile, but eventually it will be bouncy.

 

just go on ebay if you want to go cheap you get a strut and spring kit for like 250-300$ and it's drops like 2.5" (Dropzone i believe). But if you had money the best way would be to go with something worth the money, your car should always be worth it i think

 

Sprint makes the lowest springs that I know of, like 2 1/2-3 inches.. Either way you go, you'll need aftermarket shocks.

 

I used skunk2 adjustable racing coilovers, droped my car 3 1/4 in the front and 2 3/4 in the back. I didn't replace my struts though, when they go I will put some skunk2 struts in there. The ride is kind of bumpy, but not to bad.
