Default Finally New Wheels but know want Springs...

I just got some 17X7 Konigs on my xa with 214/40/17 cooper tires. Looks really nice! But im now dissapointed in the space between the car and tire so im looking for suggestions. I am leaning towards the eibach pro kit, i want to drop the car but not drastically, its a daily driver and i dont want to sacrifice comfort to much. I figure 1.5 inches isnt bad.

What do you guy suggest??

how much am i looking at for install? i dont have the tools to do the job.


I have pics but dont know how to put them in the topic??? any help??

If u wanna go 1.5" drop go with the Eibach Pro-kit. Progressive springrate so u get maximum cornering ability plus still maintain a smooth ride while cruising. I'm on the Sportline kit which is a 2" drop and I think its perfect. Smooth ride for being the stiffer spring than the Pro-kit and it corners o sooo nice. Definitly check out Eibach first.

Upload them to Photobucket (or equivalent), then get the image code and paste it in here.
