lowering

[sickest]

i know theres already lots of thread on lowering but i just wanna get a quick answer and cbf scrolling though all the threads
Anyway im going to lower my car tomoz and im not sure what to get, heres a pic of my car
at the moment im thinking ssl in the back and sl in the front what do yall think? i want it to look good but dont want to scrape over every speed bump.

If you still want it to handle reasonably and look respectable:
SL rear
Low front

If you just want looks then SSL rear SL front

sl rear and low front for me wouldnt be worth it, if im spending $450 to get my car lowered i wanna be able to notice the difference, ill most likely go with the second option but im still open to suggestions.

 

[EYY]

$450... what are they doing to it? Just new springs?

You need new shocks and struts too. No way around that if you're going lower than lows.

yeah just new springs i think, i asked them just then and they said they can use the factory shocks. I thought $450 was decent price considering i know other places that do it for $500 but ill look around.

 

[sickest]

just checked dandy exhaust and they said they could do it for $400 so ill probably get it done there

No way they are doing a proper job for that much. Factory shocks ARE NOT suitable for SL or lower.

hmmm ill ask them about it tommorow, also how much would i be looking at for new shocks and seeing as ive got 20's would they scrub or do i need to get something else to fix that aswell?

Whoever is installing your springs is a moron.

Anything lower than Low/FE2 on stock shocks is dangerous and will ride like ass.

Do it properly or don't do it at all.

how much would it cost to do it properly? i just got told 400 to lower it so im guessing that includes the rest lol
