In the original post you said you had KW V3s and 3 turns from the lowest setting. Now you say you have springs? It doesn't add up. Im out of this thread. Good luck to you in whatever you decide on doing.

blackonorange · 10-20-2011, 07:58 PM

blackonorange · 10-21-2011, 12:53 PM

There like is no benefits I know but ppl have done it I'm getting coilovers anyway so it doesn't matter I just hate how my car sits till I get the coilovers kinda looks like a boat

corbin09 · 10-21-2011, 02:08 PM

The_student... I think my car may just seem higher than it actually is due to me having 18's.

Lol at the cutting springs. No cut springs here. I am the one with the kw v3's. This thread got confusing in a flash!

This is the drop that I got maxed out on the rears... Obviously I have lots of room on the fronts.

There is something strange going on there.... your ground clearance is about right for maxed rears, and i am not sure why there is so much wheel gap other then the 18's but your rolling diameter should be the same as the 19's so that leads me to do you have proper tires on the wheels?

and if so is everything installed correctly?

corbin09 · 10-21-2011, 07:05 PM

Must be the tire profile I'm running. I am 265/35/18 front and 275/35/18 rear. Should I bump up to a 40 series sidewall?

the_student · 10-21-2011, 08:15 PM

Sorry for the mixup haha.
Stock 18 tire height is 50 front and 45 out back haha. So yeah, just change your tires and you'll be fine.
