Icon2 Coilover Suggestion?

I was planning on getting Ground Control Coilovers but wondering if they ride any good? I wanna get something that rides good but also something that can lower my car having to not have any wheel gap. Any suggestions? Thanks

i just put sum on my ek hatch like 2 days ago and they ride amazing. i put them on with tokico blues but theres pretty much the same as stock shocks. if your gonna go lower that about 2 inches please get your fenders rolled or just raise it abit. cuz i dropped mines 2.25 inch and it tore up my tire so i raised it and now its fine.

hope this helps.

Thanks for the help guys, now my only problem is that I have no idea how Ima roll my fenders since I dont have a heat gun.. haha. Ill probably wont slam it as much knowing how the roads are in texas with road kill just around the corner..
