    I like the sportlines. I think it will look great. Dont forget to come see me after you drop it to get it all aligned.

    Stock Shocks will hold up fine with a drop. Eibach will not destroy, itll make their life shorter yes, but we are talking maybe 20k miles less. At 80k you should be changing your struts anyway (even though most people dont).

    The problem i have with coilovers is that most of them are all china made bullshit. Its extremely hard to find a GOOD QUALITY coilover system under $1000. Then, you have to tweak it to get it right. Lets be honest most drivers dont touch their coilover settings and adjustable dampening is a waste of money for almost everyone. If you plan on just driving the car point a to point b, get the springs, upgrade shocks when they go bad 3 years down the road.

    IMO
    That makes too much sense. Eibach usually follows up their springs with a decent set of shocks/struts too so that might work out anyway. I guess i can't go wrong with the springs. Saw a 9th gen on one of the forums today with the same drop on some BBS RSs. It was something magical.

    Might look pretty good, they're 5x114, but I can't let you have these. This is one set of stock wheels I think actually look good. I do have a nice set of wheels you CAN buy from me though.
