All I ever seem to see are before pics with gaps. I don't really have the money to get anymore hardcore into suspension than a L setup. Is it possible? Can it look like the wheel wells are full, but not like a 4x4?

Thanks

Edit: I'm thinking 18" LS wheels like these

I think it will look better with at least a l-tuned drop. do you want it really low? if so than with 18's 19's the espiliar springs work out for a low look..

Well I'm still undecided as far as Tein or L-tuned? I'm looking for about an inch with the 20'
s and i think that would be just enough.. As someone mentioned earlier I'm a little paranoid also when it comes to lowering... I just had the front and rear bumpers touched up before i bought the car to.... For the money the L-tuned seems to good because a inch is what I'm looking for... i don't understand the whole negative camber thing so i want to keep the same specs with the 20's if thats possible?

Is the the L-tuned stiffer than the Tein CS? I figure going L-tuned with install would be under a grand.. Or just bite the bullet and go CS

By going the coilover route is there anything that needs to be done with the camber? or does it stay at stok specs? Thanks

Scroll down about 5 posts to "Pictures of me new car" and you will see my car on 19's with the L-Tuned setup.

I beleive i saw that post yesterday and yes that drop is pretty good. It seems just right and what I'm looking for....

?- Does the rear end drop alot with passengers in the rear? Also thats about a inch drop isn't it? Again looks very good..

Hey man,

To be honest, I have not had anyone apart from my 2 year old son in the back so I am not sure.

There is about a 2 finger gap in there I believe.

Thx man,

If just basic setup, 19' with L-tuned will look good!

Once you are looking at modded cars with drops, even the OEM wheels with no drop looks weird. 16s are passable but for me, even 17s with no drop now looks bad. It is up to you, however, what you can live with. When the situation is right, we, as humans capable of rationalization, can convince ourselves of anything. :P

I'm not going to put rims on and deal with it. I don't really want to get it very lower for financial reasons, ride comfort, appearance, and camber issues. If I can't find proof of 18s and mild drop looking good, then I will simply keep it stock until more money becomes available.

I don't plan on doing anything else except for maybe a L tuned grille. I want it to look fairy stock. I'm not trying to turn heads too much/

You just made the decision for me in a very good way. Thanks for the post and the pics. What size are your tires?
