I have Eibach Pro kit springs and KYB AGX struts, rides and handles really well. and the drop is pretty even. so it looks great in my opinion. hopefully that will help you a lil.
sportlines are the same drop in front but an extra half inch in the rear, it should level it out, but your hp's will be useless
Well unfortunately there isn't anything you can do to the s techs, you would need to get the sportlines. I dropped mine on d specs and s techs about a month ago, and the rear doesn't make me happy. The front looks perfect in my opinion, and im also on 17's.
the car has a natural rake of about an inch and the stechs give it another .2, the overall rake of the car with them is 1.2 inches, with my 17's i love the rake it was what i was going for, if u installed them correctly they did drop ur rear 1.5inches but the front being low makes it look like it almost went up, its to each there own but for the same front with a lower rear go with sportlines they take the cars rake to about .4 which is almost even and with subs in the trunk it will look level with the sportlines
i love my s-techs but the rake isnt for eveyone
i agree, sometimes im loving the rake, other times i look at the car, and im like damn i wish it was lower. Still riding on my 16's for now, 17's are going on after the car comes out of paint next week,, ill make up my mind on them once the 17's are on
Yea, i agree with 99fireSe, somedays it looks awesome, somedays i just wish the rear was a little lowe. But they perform and handle amazingly with the d specs so i am pleased altogether.
actually today i was driving a rental to the bodyshop and had a friend driving my car behind me, loved the look of the rake, can't wait to see it once its painted and the new rims are on
