coil overs are alot of money and you will not be using your h&rs anymore... this will give you the ability to lower your car till your tires hit the fenderwells.... you will need caster camber plates also

I have my front lowered 1.5" and my back .75" with 18" rubber it rides terrible. My front support bar that is underneath the car just behind the oil pan is only 2.5" off the ground! If I went with a 2" lowered set-up it would only be 2" which is just too low!

That 260 doesn't include the struts. The struts are over 200 a piece.

im sure your stock struts are shot, and you needa faster, better performing strut. Be careful how low you lower it, CC plates can only adjust for so much

Doesn't anyone worry about beef, and power anymore? Do what you want, but to spend all the money and time onsomething that is going to make your car less driveable, just doesn't make sense to me. Throw that extra money under the hood. Looks good with the lowering as is.
