right now i have s-techs on 19s (235/25/19) and a AIT Fantastic front bumper(bc2 sides and rear)... i have 2.5 inches of ground clearance and i tuck all tires

heres a pic of what i have:



i want to go back to stock body with an rs1 lip, and go down to 18s. But, i still want to tuck all the tires, and maybe less ground clearance.

i have a hard enough time as it is now but i see Z's and G35s and such rolling around lower then me and im jealous!

which coil overs should i go with?

pics if you have them with body mod and tire specs also, please!

 

B&G's slammed.
i think its 3.5 inches.
i dont know why you want to know what coilovers go the lowest.
if your rubbing 18s and a lip kit your not gonna get much lower then 3.5 inches anyway
i had to cut off the whole fender liner because it was running, and i need to roll my fenders too already.

 

hope they dont drive with it that low or else your gonna end up kissing that lip goodbye

 

yupp.
its DD that low.

 

i already dont have fender liners and have rolled fenders, so no issues there.... and damn thats low!

 

well ive heard that the first gen. of the F2 coilovers go down to 6".
but i doubt that because that physically impossible anyways.
im on line 3.5 and as you can see, about 1 or 1 1/2 more inche and ill be scraping constantly.
plus theyre discontinued so good luck finding them.
i do know someone whos considering selling them so if you really want them PM me and ill talk to him or you can talk to him.

 

Why would anyone wanna drive that low? It only looks nice and there are probably more cons than pros to driving that low. You will scrap consistency, comfort is out the window, and turning isnt going to be any better.

 

haha seriously thats not drivable IMO, looks good on shows though

 

i drive on it daily.
you dont scrape if you know how to drive with them.
granted ive scraped before but sometimes its unavoidable.
i love the bouncy **** ride.
and turning is the same.

 

yeah but what sucks is that your tc cant just go anywhere like an ordinary car can and you have to look for alternative entrance, exits where you seldom have options.. and good luck driving on unfamiliar roads haha.. as long as you know where to goyou should be good, regardless i still love the slammed look

 

that means you have to avoid all speed bumps, gas station dips, ramps, and etc. If anything the handling is probably worst. Lowering doesn't always equal better handling and most definitely handling doesnt stay the same. Its either good or bad.

 

Oh Joey...I will miss the glowing Lucifer!

 

^^ lowering that low is only for looks haha no way for handling.. but yeah true on all those you mentioned even on 2" or more drop

 

if anyone wanted to go that low, they might as well get bagged...then they could raise there car when ever they want.

 

x2

 

i want to go coilovers because i want tto track the car, but when i show it, i want it to be stupid slammed...

and i dont plan to daily drive it slammed, prolly a little higher then stechs for daily driving.

 

^exactly my plans.

i never claimed the handling was better now, i know for a fact that its not, thats why i would never even consider autocrossing at the height im at now.

and ive made it into plenty of gas stations, thats what no one understand, its completely possible to make it up or down big inclines and sharp steep ones too. you just have to know the right angles to take everything at, and obviously not go flying in or out.

ive driven on plenty of unfamiliar roads to actually.
just last last weekend i drove 45 out to NIU to visit a buddy for a couple days.
AND this was at night so theres even less visibilty, you just gotta pay more attention, thats all.

 

Lowest coilovers = Function and Form. Easily a 5+ inch drop.

 

yea, thats what i said earlier.
i wanted them...then realized that 5" is like physically impossible. lol

 

is there a list anywhere that lists all the coilovers and how much they lift and lower the car?
