Default biggest drop with lowering springs

That was the lowest drop I could find for just springs...and that's why I went with them

If you want to go lower than that, I think you will need to with go coil-overs or air-bags...unless you plan on cutting springs

Do they make a bag kit for the Xb's? Hmmm... very interesting I have to be careful how I drop mine due to the huge speed hump in my neighborhood.

i'd rather cut than torch. the heat causes more stress making them weaker. but yes that is the cheap easy ghetto way.

I'm running 19x8 rims, 35 series tires, and the tanabe df210's. I also have a 15" box in the back, but there is really no sagging.
