Default Coilovers

I was wondering which coilover set up would get me the lowest. I have looked at quite a few different ones and most dont say how far they can drop. If you can provide pics too post those up.

h&r ultra low coilovers.

Their description says

Height adjustable to 3.0”+ on average
Super low for serious tuners only
H&R Ultra Low Coil Overs are for the over-the-top enthusiasts who want extreme lowering. We suggest they be installed only by tuners who are familiar with the dynamics of ultra-lowered vehicles—issues such as fitting smaller tires and wheels, possibly removing fender liners, trimming fender wells, negative camber, etc. may need to be addressed. This kit is designed for show vehicles; Please consult with your installer before purchasing.

the ksport and d2 ones will get you as low as you could want to go in the front, the back due to our suspension type with the torsion beam will require slight modification to get really low, but you can get pretty much dumped just by pulling the collars out in the rear.

yea i was on ksport too,

on the fronts you will run out of ground clearance before you will run out of coil thread. when i had my 15's on, i rode with the car about 3/4" off the ground for a while.

in the rears you just gotta work with it. if you pull the collars out you get an acceptable amount of low, otherwise you'll have to modify some, cut coilover springs or something. i ran with the collars out and found the clearance to be acceptable on the 16s and 17s.
