hey everyone... I wanted to lower my '00 SE when I put 18" on it. I've done a search on here about springs and struts and I'm trying to choose between H&R springs and Eibach. I wondering that since H&R's lower the rear a bunch, would that look like it's sagging in comparison to the front? any help would be appreciated. Also, when I'd have to get new shocks/struts, I've read on here that Tokico wear out kinda fast, so do koni yellow's fit on the '00 max? Or is it better to spend more money on coilovers...thanks for the help!

I'm not sure where people get this stuff about the rear dropping lower with H&R springs, or any springs for that matter. I'm not flaming your post, Keh mon.

The front fender is cut higher. The rear will always look lower. The H&R's have a .10 lower drop in the front, which still does not compensate for the large wheel well opening.

Am I missing something here? :confused:

for that just look at all my pics lowered. I know my car sags in the back.. I don't need anyone to tell me that it doesn't. I even measured it with a ruler. something must be in my struts or shocks wore out. but it does sag

I'm saying it looks like it should. My opinion. Did you have a full tank of gas?

thanks for the replys.... I know that stock, the front fender gap is larger than the rear, I was basically wondering if I wanted to even out the fender gaps, which lowering springs would I use. Thanks

eibach evens them out much better than h&r and gives a sportier ride than stock whereas h&r gives a softer more old person-like ride than stock
