if finally decided on some wheels.. they are ******* sick work meister 3 peice black ...but these are real expensive so i will not be able to afford nice coil overs like i would want to have... so ill need to get springs.. the wheels are 18s and i want it to look good not tucked but close i dont want much gap at all which springs should i go with.. ive been looking at the eibach but i think that a 1inch drop may not be enough.. thanks in advance for the help..

 

I've heard that the Espielers (sp) are the best.

yea not the best by far but they are great for the buck

 

they are pretty good for the price. I have a buddy with them and the drop is fairly nice also.

 

alright what is gonna give me a good drop on 18s so that i have minimal to no wheel gap?

coilovers lol.

 

haha yes i know but if you read my original post i wont have money for coil overs because of the wheels im gonna get... does anyone know how the adjustable comptech springs are?

 

save up and get coilovers, do it right first time round

 

well it looks like you're looking for a significant drop. Most S2K springs drop the car around 1-1.5 inches. The only ones that drop them more than that are Skunk2. its like a 2+ inch drop i think. you'd have to go to skunk2.com to check it out for sure, but those springs are the most significant drop. Anyone have any kind of opinions on these? my friend has them on his S2...i havent really driven the car hard or anything like that though...it did seem like excessive body roll when i took it around a curve at somewhat of a speed...

 

what size and offset are the wheels. what size tires do you plan on running? Until you know this, don't purchase springs.

 

what spring company offers the biggest drop?? and how much of a drop is it?

 

thanks for the info guys sorry i got 1 more question

how is camber on the s2k will i need a camber kit when i drop it?

well that is a grey area. Since the S has camber kits on it from the factory you wont need them initially. But if you want to get completely back to stock setting you may want an aftermarket one. But since you wont have coilovers initially i dont think you will need once since you wont be that low.

not really true.... if you do a proper spring setup.. you'll be buying koni yellows to go along with it.. and putting one of the lesser dropping springs, just set it on the lower perch and you're down to around 1 3/4 to 2 inches...

P.S. don't get the skunk2... they are junk..
