Is there anyone riding on 18s or 19s at stock height? I just want to see what it looks like. I plan on getting some new rims soon, and was just wondering what they would look like at stock height.

ive heard that just springs are not good for the suspension. I was told that:

"our shocks were not designed to handle lowering springs and so because of the mismatched spring rates, when pairing oem shocks w/ aftermarket springs, your ride quality will suffer. you'll encounter a lot more bounce in your ride, and this will wear you your shocks sooner."

go buy coilovers

could someone please explain coilovers? whats the difference b/t them and springs?

sorry im a noob at this, but gotta start somewhere. thanks.

coilovers are shock absorber with a coil spring encircling it that's adjustable, you can adjust your ride height

while just lowering springs, you're stuck at the height the spring will offer

coilovers will give you a lower stance than just lowering springs

THEY right skip the springs and save up for the coilovers! MUCH better ride anyways!
