Whiteline I assume? What drop did you get? I have the 1" ones and it is nowhere near that low. What struts?

Nope these are the KYB setup G was selling. The big wheels did not fit when it was this low. They might now that I had to change the springs back to stock. Eventually I want to find something to lower it again just not as much.

search for a set of evo struts and springs. Night and day difference and way cheaper than coil overs.

I think they are short stroke, the lowering springs were no name brand & not sure how good they were, a nice set of h&r's should do the trick.

Your kidding right? My work-in-progess is currently sitting on the bumpstops (no springs at all) with 17's and they don't hit anything. . .

It's hard to tell with those wheels but it doesn't really look that low, whats the ground to crossmember clearance like?

It's too low when your coilovers are rubbing on the front CV joints... which means it's time to pull them out and go RWD! ):D

My car is a finger over my tires right now and it really doesnt bother me. I have yet to scrape (other then when I drove over the fill things in a gas station parking lot).
Im raising it up next year, but it drives nice as is.

Lol, I just spent about 45 minutes putting mine on 4 jackstands (weird right?) in the -30 degree weather.

I need to get my coilover wrenches BAD /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bawling.gif
