Default Who has lowest setup?

K so I have a 93 Sc4. Struts are bad so time to get coilovers if I can come up with the cash. If i get impatient ill just buy struts and lowering springs. I want the BIGGEST drop. Everyone on here is talking about ride quality, track performance. to be honest I just want to get LOW. So whats your setup and how low did it get you?!? no air cant afford it

Lots of people wanting to lower their vehicles for the first time want to go as low as possible as a priority. Once done, they realize ride quality should have been just as important as the drop.

I've been told PBMs are the way to go for a good dump. I'm thinking about grabbing a set.

PBM's are great for lowering but ride quality lacks for sure!! I suggest Stance coils, they can get pretty damn low and have far superior ride quality than the pbm's. My buddy has stance gr pus pros on his sc3, and with a knockoff vertx kit he can literally lay his body onto the ground. Just my .02

And if you want to see who has the lowest set up you should take a look at this thread.

Compared to what!!? Tein? Stance? BC? The ride quality of PBM's compared to any other QUALITY major brand of coils is mediocre at best. SIMPLE

Im pretty damn sure you can lay frame if you wanted with the stance man.

When i put mine on and did about a 3 to 4 inch drop, it still had tons of low to go if i wanted. lol
