Default Which spacers/coilovers or springs to get?

Hey guys,

I want to keep my stock set up with the 18 in anniversary rims but want to lower my car.

Which set up is better? Springs or Coilovers? Name a couple of each that you would recommend.

Now with the spacers if I run with the stock wheels how much to add for the flush look? What are some good spacers to get?

Thanks!

I really think you should do a bit more searching, these topics have been covered repeatedly....

check out peoples profile pics and their equipment/mod list and go from there.

Start here for spacers:

Fixed for the overpriced GayDM junk, and then you have to pay more to get the hub rings. Ichiba , Eibach and H&R are same quality, cheaper and have the hub rings machined into them.

I wouldn't say that........for the op that wants to keep his stockers oem wheels on spacers yes, having the machines hubcentric spacer machined into them is great...

BUT...

I love my project kics because i can swap multiple hubcentric rings for whatever spec aftermarket wheel i have or running......not all wheels are 66.1 hub bore..
