Default Buying new springs

I was wondering whether Progress springs with a 2.3 inch drop all the way around would be too low, or if I should get H&R's with 1&3/4 in the back and 1&1/2 in the front. I am planning on getting 17" rims, front & rear lips, and side skirts. I want the car to be low but I don't want the wheels to be in the wheel well.

Look into adjustable spring perches (ie - Ground controls) and adjust them to whatever you want.

i have the eibech sportline springs... they say they drop 2 inches, with my 17' it looks good i actually wish it was still a little lower. People also complain that the ride goes to ****, well i feel a little difference but when people get in my car they dont notice the difference.

dont get the progress. they suck. your ride will be gone to ****. if anything get ground controls with a decent shock or get the H&R's. if you have the money then get the nuespeed coilovers

I agree w/ newtegowner - sportlines are good. Decent drop & ride. Eibach quality. Remember to cut your bumpstops.
