Im going to lower it about 1.5 and then paint it like a ( secret paint scheme) lol

nice rims!

look into H&R springs or Eibach Pro's. the H&R's have a bit more drop in the front and the Eibachs are a slight lower with great ride. i got the Pro's with 18's for a reference, but i would have rather gotten the H&R's after i learned more about them...

nice! where did u get them? i wanna get some light-weight rims for my next car (gst or gsx), but i would like chrome 1's. ne1 know where i could get sumpin like that?

i think chrome ones are too heavy. nice lookin though. you can always get some light weight ones and then have someone crhome them.

ya, i was thinkin that also. but where would i get the rims to begin with

ebay has some good ones

i got mine from wheeldiscount.com for $700 for 17's, 205/40/17 all 4 wheels and tires mount balanced and shipped. I wanted 215 45s but they were out of the good tires in that size, they only had some crappy of the wall brand that looked like crap. so i got these. how much did you pay for your lowering springs, how much does it lower it and how low can you drop on 17s without getting a camber kit and shit.

I have a set of Eibach Pro Kits I've been trying to sell for like 5 years. Well, I havent been trying that hard obviously... You dont have your profile filled out so I dont know where you are, but if its not too much to ship you're welcome to them for a decent price.

Dont bother with the camber kit, just have the toe set to zero as soon as you install the springs. See the thread in the performance section for more info on that. ;)

I live in plaquemine La. 70764 thanx let me know how much you want for them, lol and if you have something else like a FMIC or turbo intake pipe laying around lol.

Konigwheels.com has a few diff light wieght wheels if you want to check them out =D! Ill have a picture of my car on the site on monday =D! If you look at the back of Super Street this month my rims and tires on there =D! Ive had them since june though so im not a trendy beotch lol.

Looks like 16 for shipping. I'll take 100 for the springs. If you're interested, shoot me a PM.

how much do they lower the car, whats the ride like

NICE wheels. i think chrome on imports sucks ass, but yours looks awesome.

yea they are like a hyper silver. i hat chrom on tuners also. I got them b/c im painting my car in a few months and i like the way the black makes the silver 5star stand out. the tires are a little to narrow for them rim, they fit just not quit wide enough for my tast. i got 204/40s but next time i'll get 215 45s

hey Kevin do you have any pics of the springs are like a link to a report on them, i cant seem to really find any good info.

Congrats on the visual upgrade. Now, can you make your sig smaller? :)

for some reason i thought you bought a new eclipse, looks like you only changed the rims. This is what happens when have to wake up at 7:00 am. :disappoin

Nice rims by the way. :biggrin:

They are just regular Eibach Sportlines, or Pro kit, dammit,, I cant remember. The one with the bigger drop, 1.8 inches. They rode just fine with illuminas. Stock shocks wont last too long with any lowered spring, it was a little bouncy after a while. Ah... The good old days. BTW, I have my car dropped with the coilovers about the same as it was then. So any pics you find of my car pretty much look like it did with those springs.

The eibach pro's are great, they drop the car an inch and they ride great! My roomate and i put them on his prelude and they are awesome. They are progressive so the little bumps in the road dont kill you, but the car has an obviously stiffer feel, less body roll, less nose dip when braking, and less rocking backward when accelerating. They are also engineered to work with stock struts, i would reccomind them to anyone! I also helped a friend install some pro's on a focus and if you want more of a drop, the sportlines are good too, i have helped 2 friends install the sportlines on integras, All the cars handled great and no complaints.

Yup, you confirmed what I just looked up. The sportlines are the bigger drop, thats what I have for sale. I could see the pros working with the stock shocks, since its only a 1 inch drop.
