    A good set of decently cheap lowering springs?

    Looking to lower the car an inch or 2. What are some decent and cheap lowering springs you guys are running?

          m3 springs are about an inch drop and can be had cheap and are a nice upgrade from what I hear.

          or you can use the nifty search feature. It will reveal many other options because this has been asked many times before.

            Shit, Eibachs and H&R's are what...$180 or so? Just buy a set. If you mean cheaper than that, cut 1 coil out of the front spring and remove both spring pads, that'll get you 2/3-3/4"...pull the rear spring pads out for about 12-15mm of lowering, depending on spring pad thickness, of course.

              sorry for the shit picture, but I'm lazy. Maybe later. I'm tucking front and rear tires.
