Mike, check out the second to last picture on a recent post I posted up on Modulardepot.com. The front rim is a 17x9 with a 275/40/17F BFGoodwrench G-force. I have 18's in the back in case you were wondering. I hope this helps a little?

Man, that is a whole can of worms. You will get a million opinions on that question. Some guys like C springs, some like Steeda's. The new kid on the block seems to be H&R. If I were you I would research springs. They are all different. You have firm, soft, linear, progressive, big drops, not so big drops .... You should also change your struts and shocks when doing springs too especially if you have miles on the car. Otherwise, they will just go bad and the ride will be horrible.

You can spend as much as $1500 or as little as about $400 and get everything you need.

I myself am putting Bullitt Springs, Tokico struts and shocks, UPR control arms, and FRPP sway bars. I got everything for $480. Everything is going on tomorrow.

my cars only got 11000 miles. so yea, shock and struts should be fine. but right now im lookin at wheels and tires will prolly be bout 1300. i was just thinkin springs to lower it and give it the better stance. just lookin for some opinions on other's experiences.
