coil overs will give u 3" i believe but then u would have to get shorter struts & inserts cause regular struts wont work well with a low low low suspension

eibach is 1.5in drop and megan racing springs do 2in drop. If you want the flush look your best option is probably doing coilovers but they're quite expensive

Can u send me a link of those eBay ones? I'm really just going for stance. Not worried about ride quality. I've had Nissan mini trucks static dropped to basically no suspense except the tires lol. I'm not looking to spend a ton but don't want complete garbage. I have my other toy in the garage that take the corners in

you can always heat them or cut them. i recommend not doing that but if you want the drop and don't care much for the ride quality you'll save money doing that.

ya im not gonna do that, id rather have a harshly stiff ride then the bouncy ride. ya looked at those idk yet. how low is ur car? u think 2inch drop with 15inch wheels and lower profile would get the wheel well filled?it seems this car cannot be "slammed" lol
