hey guys, didnt kno if i should have put this in the suspension section or this one so i just chose one. got a 2000 gts if the name didnt already give it away, lookin to put some tokico illumina shocks and struts on her with some skunk2(2-2.25" drop) springs. and was just wondering if i have sportmax 18" 922's with falken fk452 tires (215/40R18) will there be any scraping?

2.25" drop is pretty low but since you have 215/40r18 tires, it should be o.k. I don't know about the Tokico shocks because I never had them. All I know is that skunk springs are pretty rough, that are stiff and rides like ****, but on the other hand, the handling is great. That my 2 cents. Good luck!

well is there another brand of springs that will drop it as much, while also maintaining good ride quality?

Yea if you want to drop your ride more than 2". You will have to sacrifice the ride quality. I paid over $1000 for my Teins coilovers and strut, although it handles great, the ride quality sucks for normal driving. But I didn't care as long as it looks cool.
