i have skunk 2's and they are a lil bouncy, i really miss the ride quality i had when i was on tein s techs but i wanted to go a lil lower in the back so i had to sacrifice the ride quality for ride height. oh wells

oh thanks bro are the skunk2 springs do-able? Cause i wanna go low 2, and i know if i get sportlines or s techs, i wouldnt be happy with how it sits.

do able as in? like will you scrape or not? you just have to be really careful when your driving, watch for what your driving over i.e. speedbumps, some drive ways but for the most part you should be good the only thing i scrape are the lil black flaps under the car i have yet to scrape w my skunk 2's. Oddly i scraped more with my teins, teins also have more of a "raked" look im not to sure about sportlines tho

***theTruth*** · 02-26-2010, 03:50 PM

i have sportlines. raked for sure. no gap front, one finger rear

K20Z3 G Si · 02-26-2010, 03:56 PM

ok ok i see, i guess ima just have to buy the skunk2s and if i dont like sell them and get sportlines thanks guys

treal512 · 02-26-2010, 04:00 PM

how's wheel fitment with sportline drop and 18x8 +37 offset? thinking bout getting advan rz's in the future and i can't figure out if this will rub.

rhobere · 02-27-2010, 01:02 PM

I'm sure this has been covered somewhere on here before, but the search just isn't doing me justice.

What are the stock spring rates on the SI's? I'm trying to decide between a couple of the springs and I can't find the stock spring rates to base my opinion off of.

Wheel / tire size calculator / comparer - WHEELSMASTER
Hopefully this will help some.

but u are using skunk2. i'm thinking about just cutting the stock springs almost in half, and running my old oem suspension. i know they will blow so quick.

615aaronm615 · 03-11-2010, 12:25 PM

still do it man. its still destine to blow ur stock struts. Im pretty sure mine are gone in the front. If i get coilovers soon im going to give my skunks away.

K20Z3 G Si · 03-11-2010, 05:17 PM

I have my sportlines in my room waiting for my camber arms to come from corsport so i can finally install. Question after i do the install and all fix my camber and get my car aligned, would getting new tires throw my alignment off later? cause im getting new tires next month.

Getting new tires will not affect the allignment.

HFP is small drop. Check out the DIY HFP thread for pics. Small, but noticeable difference if you know what you're looking for.,
