I'm especially looking for pics of Eibach Sportlines, but i'll happily take any pics that include the Nitto555 295/45/18's & 255/45/18's tire combo. Thanks! [8D]

I wouldn't do it, looking at your pictures, it looks like a 2" drop the car would be sitting on the wheels. I can't believe that's the stock suspension.

I am lowered 2" and have a custom fiberglass setup 2 10's 3 amps 2 batteries 4 Caps and I still have about .5" from wheel well to tire. I have a sport tuned suspension so I agree that a drag suspension will not work with this setup, however a street or race suspension will definately work.

His car looks lower then most. It doesn't look like he has 2" from the top of the tire to the fender.

I am running 305/45/18's rear 255/45/18's up front on a saleen suspension 2" drop rear 1.5" drop front. If interested I can send up close pics in 5 days when I get back home to her. BTW I have no rubbing, and it is a very tight looking fit with minimal clearance between wheel well and tire itself. It looks sick, and I get compliments about it all the time.

I haven't ever measured, so I really don't know exactly how much room is there. Thats the main reason I started this thread, to see if anybody was successfully running the sportlines with my tire combo. I know I can go lower using springs such as the Steeda Sports, but I want to know how low I can go. How cliche lol
