Lowering with a kit

Could you pull off the 2" sprint lowering springs and a skyline kit without leaving 650 dollars on the road?

Depends on the size of tires and wheels. 17's & 18'sw/low pro's is iffy. You may run into a couple of driveways or parking lot entrances that do you in. I went up to dubs with no springs and have found a couple that give me problems. I would put the kit on the car first and judge how much to lower from there.

Check out this guys drop. He's got an air suspension kit, but its still pretty low with the body kit. If he's ridin like that, 2' with a kit should be fine.

I wouldn't do it...it seems too low to the ground. For a car that has fiberglass up front, you wanna leave a couple of inches for anything that might be on the road.

That guy has bags which means he can raise his car if he runs into trouble spots. That's what I would do if I planned to lower mine that low. But I wouldn't go that low with just a simple spring setup.
