Well I can SLAM my car to the ground, but whats the point?? !!

I need to drive it everyday and it has to behave like a normal car at 80mph+ speeds..

Look how much thread I have left on my coils..

Joe that's not low at all Looks like springs. Slam that thing down. All these other cars are Daily Drivers in here So thats no excuse Why have coils if you are going to ride at the level of an aftermarket spring drop

Its a clean one finger drop all around... My wheels are Flush fit with 30mm offset up front and 35mm offset in the rear..
They were not made to tuck.

Aftermarket springs still leave you with that oem bouncy ride thats common on the 2IS.. Thats now gone with the coils.

Plus I need to keep my front fenders in one piece when pulling in & out of driveways and/or heavy impact transitions on the freeway at higher speeds.

Also the car is evenly dropped at each corner.
