You will not be able to get the "slammed" look unless you use cut springs. I am on coilover ans almost all the way down and I still have a 3 finger gap, which is perfect for what I wanted.

You have coilovers and you still have a 3 finger fenderwell gap? I have intrax and one cut coil and I only have about 1.5-2 finger fenderwell gap, ride is still good especially when I adjust the shocks!!


If you lower your car with 15's it will look lower then what it is now. Mike has sprints and he has his stock 16's and it still looks nice!!!
