I'm running Tein Flex coilovers with circuit sports adjustable arms all around. I wouldn't trade it for the world. Car is looooooooow on 18s with plenty of lowering capability left in my coilovers. Nice, firm ride with plenty of response from the wheels.

Whatever coilovers you choose, you absolutely have to get adjustable RUCAs.

the s techs will drop it lower than the h techs, the h techs are probably as near comfortable-riding as stock according to Tein, however I don't know anyone that's actually running the h's..

I do have a few pics from back in the days..


With Eibach Sportlines. Rear 17x7, 245/45/17. Front 15x7? 195/55/15.


Dropzone lowering springs. They were on the car when I got it, I don't know much about them.


Factory suspension. 17x7 wheels, 245/45/17 rear, 215/45/17 front.


Another hatch, factory suspension, same wheels and tires.

Imho I think a slight drop in the front is all that's needed, if you do well with picking out tire sizes. I keep going back and forth between lowering springs and stock springs, I like the comfort of stock but without my old wheels it looks like crap -_-*

coilovers > spring/strut combos for any sort of performance goals

[nifares240]

depends on which coilovers. there are some crappy one's which I will take the strut and spring combos any day. I have owned the crappy coils and good one's also. also have owned strut and sping combos which have performed seriously well.
