    I love the EF's, even though there like 20yrs old, they looks good with a little TLC.

    the coilover set i have is supposto be from factory height to 4" drop, as of right now the front has another inch left and the back about the same, so i would say it's 3" right now, going to shoot for 4 in the back next week. also putting the sway bar off my 4 door on there too.

    Man it looks pimp with those alloys. You definitely should keep em on there./ Thats some old school flair. PLus you can get some crazy wide tires in a 13" better than a 14". Put the centercaps on lol.

    might sound crazy but i need a lower profile but much wider tire for them, where would i find them? lower profile means i can drop it the full 4"...i'll modify the coilovers and go lower than that if i can. lol i need different lug nuts for the center caps to fit, i got the big bulky ugly ones on it now

    Bruce if you want a wider lower profile I think 175/50/13s would work? SOmehting like these: http://www.minimania.com/web/Item/TYRE18/InvDetail.cfm

    I know sumitomo and yakohama make tires in that size.
