well i guess espelir is the way to go
1 drop is comfy bit stiffer than stock
2 drop is lower than most and will cover most wheel gap on 20"
3 and drop is still within alignment specs
has any one heard any thing bad about these springs?does anyone know how much they run?

ISM,

I def think Espelirs are the way to go for a S/S combo. Keep in mind that most cars are about a .25" lower in person than they look in pics. Those Espelirs leave no gap once settled and a nice hunkered down look. I think they are something like 350 or so, PM GS4Will

my main concern is that i want my car as low as possible but dont want alignment problems and I want the feel as close to stock as possible. so i think espiler is the way. I have seen the light!

okay so hows the handling on the jdm espelir as compared to the ltuned springs if the jdm spring rate is close to stock are their any handling gains or are the gains from a lower ride height , gswill how would these springs match up to bilstein sport shocks

i like the 1.6 as opped to 1.25 ltuned and esp the rear i could use just a tad under .50 in lower in the rear but i cant seem to justify 1300 for coils when i dont intend to track the car unless someone has a used set looking to sell the flexs
