Can't wait for my Pro kits to come in on Monday.

How long after you put them on was that photo taken? Did they "settle" in yet or was that photo taken right after you put them on?

I'm having a hard time figuring this out. i want to the springs thatll lower my car a lot on springs.
i loved the drop on my si sedan on h&r sports with the oem wheels and tires. it was just low enough. i just put on wheels (0.5" wide and 5mm lower offset) and tires 215/45/17 and the car looks higher (more wheel well gap)than before.

now i want to bring it down another inch....

do it once, do it right. get a coil over setup. you will be able to get your car sit exactly how your want it to. there are too many variables based on each wheel and tire combo, imo.

^ Its just so much more expensive to get coilovers when you can buy springs for 150-200$ but yet that is the way to go, once my shocks blow i will be going that route.

you'll feel your car hitting the bump stops -- aka bottoming out

yes! 50,600 about, then got the SI and don't really drive my TL. i actually haven't evn replaced my shocks .. they're still good, just bottom out everynow and again. so maybe a few more thousand and it'll need replacement.
