    Sounds like you need some new pics then! I had 17's on mine, and it was just right with the lowering and slightly lower bumpers/side skirts.

    stock atm, i was going to get Tokico blues and some Tein H techs. But i really don't want my tires to rub. I know they wouldn't if it was me and one passenger but I'm concerned if i carry 2-3 more people or a lot of cargo. I had an accident about 3 years ago and one of the rear quarter panels has bondo, so rolling my fenders inst really an option. Right now the car sits about an inch lower than the pics i posted, with about a 1/2 inch gap increase between the tire and fender.

    Expect to spend almost $1,000 on good street coilovers. And stiffer springs means less rubbing.

    cheapest i found the K1's for is 930 D: lol, i do however like the idea of having a fully adjustable suspension system over lowering springs and stiffer struts.

    Yeah I'm sure the existence of vvti.net wa the reason he bought the car... I'm sure it had nothing to do with the fact that it was a new cheap and economical car.
