Default Spoon springs w/ Mugen header

Do you think I'll have clearance issues with spoon springs and mugen header?? I was gonna get the lowdowns but because me car doesn't see the track that much I figure I'll just go with the springs. I've got the Mugen 4-1 header and twin loop exhaust w/ the stock rims w/ 205-40-15's azenis. Also next summer I'll have some sort of 16 inch wheel. Will they rub with the spoonies?

you will own the mugen header.

spoom springs are really overrated.

get a usdm counterpart.

why spoon for 350 when you can go eibach or H&R for 150-200 shipped.

kgmm springs have better drop (less drop) than spoon. I think its good $100 or so cheaper than spoon too.

yes yes it was a freaking typo 205-45-15. So other than Tom's opinion will my header get owned by the spoon springs. Also what about the canister on the twin-loop exhaust B-pipe, it hangs kinda low too. What do you guys think?

You have 205/45/15 tires?

I think you'll bottom out on a lot of things and dent your header and exhaust.

Don't worry about it.

Why did you want to lower your car in the first place?

Honestly I don't think the benefits of the Spoon springs outweigh the greater risk of bottoming out your header and exhaust.

I'd recommend selling the springs.
