Offsets? and what suspension?

Stock or pulled/ rolled fenders?

What size tires are you looking at?

A good way to find out some of these q's if you aren't sure yourself is to check some other threads here in which members post their setups.

I didn't realize all that would be a factor.I'm personally not really good with off sets and sizingI just heard that it would be really difficult to do or near impossible to fit a 10 in in the front.

whats specs would be needed to make it work?

Ive seen it done before....

hell, I've seen it done on an s13 before too...

I dont remember exactly offset and tires specs used, but I can tell you straight out that a +25 or +15 aint gonna cut it

Why wouldn't a +12 or +25 not work?

hmmm good question...

you know what's wierd, coilover springs have a smaller diameter than lowering springs, but I've heard that people have better clearance with lowering springs than coilovers...

Don't forget spring seat on spring perch that goes above the tire.

its because most lower springs, becuase on the stock shock sit abouve the tirecoilovers moreoften than not are right next to the tire.

to answer your qwithout at 30mm fronts, you cant do it.
