Default Lowering springs on ap1.
I just bought a 01 gpw ap1 and Im wanting to see what lowering springs look like, how low it is, how it rides, so on so on. Any input would be great!

Thanks.

Ive got an 02 and lowered mine on Tien S Tech springs with OEM shocks for now and mine rides great. Here is what the stance looks like with my 16s on it. Should be putting 18s on it soon though.

I used Espelir springs in my S2000 for two years. They worked well. Sorry that I don't have any pics.

tein stechs are a pretty good bet - no performance benefits but it lowers your car while still being pretty comfortable
