I also went with the JIC FLT2 VIPs. From all the research I've done, the VIP series are made to drop the lowest on the market. At least that's what my rep at JIC's told me.

I got the HKS Hypermax RS 30-way adjustibles. I LOVE them! Some people say that they are too soft but the ride feel is very similar to stock.

Here is a pic of my GS with the suspention all the way down. I'm running on 17 inch Volk CE28N's (from my old car) until I get my Work Equips in.



Hope this helps.

Many coilovers that have an adjustable shock length, e.g. Tein Flex, JIC, Zeal, ... will drop more than you will ever need.

What are the spring rates on the jic flt a2 vip coilovers? Is it comparable to the tein cs or much stiffer?
