Hey guys, just got my BSP 5sp and I love the car to death! I just ordered my rear sway bar and I was wondering if I install the trd springs will I run into problems with my ground effects? I have 18's and the wheel gap is not too bad (about 2 inches) however I was wondering if I might start scraping the bumper on driveways and speedbumps if I drop it. Anyone here with ground effects and lowering kit have advice?

I drove a lowered eclipse for a while and hated it! My apt has a VERY steep driveway to get in the garage that slopes up then slopes down and I would always scratch the eclipse and teeter a bit on the edge... The tC gets over it fine and I don't want to start scraping my new car...

Thanks guys!

 

ya i plan on doing that too. anyone have any trouble?

 

Of course you can scrape. Even a stock car can in many places. The lower the car the easier to scrape.

My car has scraped the front end a few times and its stock. Local car wash has a real steep exit and that usually gets me.

 

We put the Spy 2.5" drop on my demo, w/ 18" wheels and 40 series tires with the body kit and it scraped the lip on everything, but the kit remained in place and continued to look great from any vantage point around the car. I am on my second demo now and have the same drop and wheel type on the new one but no lip and it hasn't scraped at all.

 

can you post a pic....Im thinking of dropping mine 2 but Ive never heard of anyone dropping it lower than taht.... where did you get the springs again??? hows the ride??
