hello.
i recently bought new rims for my car (18 inch konig unknown), and they came with free lowering springs. the lowering springs are for 2.13 inch. i want to get them installed, and my first question is if anyone knows a cheap place that does them. ive asked a few places, and the cheapest place was 250 dollars. my next question is, im wondering if they will hit the fender, or if they will rub. if you have any experience with that, please let me know. thanks.

 

ew 18 inch on an integ... i think it will rub.

LOL 18's? Get a cadilac if you want big **** rims.

Goto les schwab or something, who knows anywhere can install springs. Get your sister to show you how.

 

installin springs are pretty easy thing to do, go to any autoparts store n pick up a set of spring compressors n do them urself, u can find a write up on here or t-i on how to do it. Took me about 2 hrs n i had no clue wat i was doin


as for the 18s ppl on here are gonna hate but dont sweat it, theyll fit but u probly wont to roll the fenders

 

alright thanks man ill check it out. but someone i was talking to said that it was a bad idea to put them on my stock shocks? i didnt think that would matter. anyways i appreciate your help.

 

it's most likely a bad idea to put them on the stock shocks... what brand are they? The spring rates matter.... Also it will probably rub without rolled fenders.

 

18" wheels and a 2" drop is going to be a bad idea. my 16's with a 2" drop in the front barely clear the fenders and will rub once in a while if i hit a bump while turning hard. about the shocks; you heard right. lowering your car on stock shocks will make them go out much faster, aftermarket shocks designed for a drop are always recommended when lowering.

 

if your going to get a suspension for your car thats one thing you wana spend a little money on and do right you know?? do a little searching, maybe look at some adjustable springs or coilovers or possibly just better springs..i have the skunk2 adjustable springs with tokico struts, its a little bouncy but i like it.

just dont put some cheap springs on your car, and def think about the 18inchers i always like the 15inch twistys then you wont rub!
