I'm just wondering, but why do you want to lower your car and keep the stock rims. Do you plan on putting rims on it in the future. Just my oppinion but I think that it is worthless to lower a car without nice tires and rims. You dont get the performance or the looks that slamming your car gives you. Its your car man but I'm just letting know not to expect to much of a difference in looks or performance w/stock rims.

Yep. Thats how I got my car dropped like 4". The ride quality was not affected at all either. After the springs themselves the car didn't sit like I wanted so I had no other choice. It sits nice now and was definitly worth it. If I had 17's I would have dropped it even more. It's nothing to low but the tires sit nice right inside the fenders. I wish they made coilovers.

it you want proformance then i would deff go with front or rear sway bars. they help the handling on the car. the springs help but if you want to really improve the handling then i would have to move towards the the sway bars. but the eibachs will deff make the max look good. i wish i got the eibachs over the S T lowering springs. they did not lower my ride enought. thats my two cents

thanks

No. only cut the bottom of the coil. If you cut the top you will have poor ride quality. If you cut off the dead coil at the bottom it should be plenty. If you put them on and its still not low enough. Then wait a day. You'll be amazed by how much they settle.
