if you want to give girls a ride in your car, do not get coils.

you can always change the setting to softest but it defeats the purpose of coilovers and you can rub from being low with soft setting. I want coilovers just for a decent comfort settings and perfect drop, like ndk said go coilovers

Get coilovers. My friends are car enthusiast and they drilled into my head.. " Don't cheap out on coilovers.. A drop is the most important thing on the car"

I have Tein CS with EDFC and I love it!

cheap 19" wheels? You can get MRR GT1 for 1800 with decent tires.. you can see my setup here. I went with staggered 19"

I got them from a vendor in here but now they are no longer a vendor. I'm sure d2 or m1 will give you about the same price.

I got it from rxmotors..the guy who owns the screen name (rxmotors) no longer works at rxmotors so he no longer is a vendor here.. you are in Indiana aren't you? maybe you could try local shop there so you don't have to pay shipping..

can you get them through Tire Rack? They are probably the closest to you or D2 is the next closest to you. I also forwarded you a PM for another contact in IL over the weekend. Hit him up and see what he will do for you. Its not that far of a drive
