how bad does it look, honestly? is it doable at least for a little? 350's already seem low as it is, so i didnt think it would look that horrid. thx for feedback.

When i got my 19's i purchased the spring right after i saw my gaps , it badly needed a drop. too much of a gap for my tastes..... only thing is i wish i purchased the springs before i put the wheels on, i hated driving with the gap......thats just pref...also the ride is smoother on stock suspension always..

Did you just say lowering kit?
Anywho. Do not do 20s. Serisouly. If you are planning on modding the car (ie turbo, or anything performance) anything above 19 takes away from it. Honestly in that aspect anything above 18 really.
But to answer your question 19s with stock height would look fine.

I bought the Eibach Pro-Kit springs at the same time I bought my 18" Enkei's, but after I put my front lip on I chickened out on the springs. I've already scraped it a few times. Any lower and I'd not be able to drive anywhere! So, for now they sit in a box in my living room (much to my wife's displeasure).
