Yes I have 18" wheels. I have no problems scrubbing out or anything but you have to pay attention or it could happen.

Yes I take my car to the mountains a couple of times per month to drive aggressively through the corners. Like I said before just go slow and you won't have any problems scraping.

have more pics to see the side properly and how low it is?

i dont have a clear pic but this is mine with my current drop:

So you're saying you drive aggresively slow around mountain corners???

No I drive aggressively through the mountain corners and slow over speedbumps and inclines. :monkey:

lol. I just thought that was funny. I knew what you meant...
You just have the springs though right... not the coilover sleeves??

i have the same springs in my car just installed and i love them all i need are the camber kit so the rear doesnt arch but love the way it handles. i have the stock rims on my gts and it is low but like he said speed bumps and all that have to be slow i have neon though and that mostly y i go slow.

prepare some money for shocks soon since this kind of drop will kill your shocks less than a year. i think tein s tech is a good choice.

i've been there, done that.

S-Techs will be about the same. Bye Bye shocks.

Yes it is reccomended that you upgrade the shocks/struts with those coilovers.

I like your fender. Which brand is that? and how's the fitment on that thing? Did you have to drill the holes?

[swyn]

no matter you drop 1.5 or 2.5, its all depend on how you drive your car, if you drive it carefully, your shocks/struts will not blown that fast, BUT if you drive it hard, you might need to change it every 10 months or less.
I have Sprint Springs with 2.0 dropped all around, I have been using it for 2 years with Stock Shocks/Struts, they are still strong eventho the streets in New York are so bad.

03GTSTRD - Nice car bro! Would you mind to post more pics? or send it to me : streetartceli@aol.com

Thanks bro! They are the fenders that Nopi sells as it's house brand. They fit OK but not perfect. I could make them fit pretty good with some work but I just don't have time. Yes you have to drill the holes out to install these fenders.

[swyn]

definetely a sweet ride, the TRD kit doesnt look that high anymore with skunk2 springs and I like to see no gaps between tires and fenders :)
