have a 06, bought car with h&R springs on it. rated at 1.3 F and 1" drop R. car is on stock v2 18" rims. i have on the way work meisters s1 specs:

19x9.5 +12 R disk for the front
19x10.5 +10 O disk for the rears.

to my understanding the best thing to do to accommodate me spending alot on these rims would be to get coilovers to get the car to the ride height i would think looks best(no wheel gap). * need to get up/down garage hill so i cant be slammed*

would the car still have gap with just the springs? or should i get the coilovers no questions asked. BC racing BR type coilovers are in my budget and those are what i will get. i also have SPC rear camber kit and fenders are going to be rolled. also due to my roads where i live, 245 35 F, 275 35 R are my tire choices.

am i on the right track here? i just drive the car to work and around town on the weekends really no tracking. just trying to way the pros/cons and not spend money if i dont need to, maybe just put the rims on with the springs and see how it looks? dont want to spend money doing things twice.(RIMS taking for ever to come from japn)

 

I would put the wheels on and see how it looks before buying coilovers. If you can't get into your driveway with your car being lower then why bother? You may be happy with the springs and keep in mind you can always shave off 1/2" in the rear doing the spring mount mod.
