if you want to be hellflush and helldumped you need super hard coilovers. none of this stance/megan bull****, i mean at least 20k springs front and rear. take a look in any of the japanese magazines at the guys on coilovers and they are running 20k plus springs. This is a given because you basically want hardly any movement at all so when you are slowly going up driveways and inclines the car just lifts rather than the wheel hitting the guards.
as for negative offsets...yeah okay... you will need widebody and serious fender modifications. in addition, you'll need to decide how much tyre stretch and camber you want to run, that will then determine how much offset you can run.
at the end of the day this car wont be daily driveable so i would also consider buying a runaround for the day to day.
good luck with it though, do your research

OP you got to do more research as to what look you are really trying to pull off here. decide on the look you want then research on what you need to do to pull off what you want. You will know how much you will end up spending and know what you're dealing with.

Also, spring rates don't mean anything, either, unless correctly valved for said dampers. Try putting 20k springs on something not specifically dampened for them. Yeah, you'll soon find out that none of that means anything unless all done together.

I just checked out Platinum VIP in Whittier, and that place is pricey as a motha!! but they're pretty legit... They're going to Hellaflush 5 up in Venice. If y'all live in California, you guys should hit it up. Btw, anybody selling 19's particularly works Eurolines or Weds Kranze, lemme know
