      The cupkit is the lowest you can go on springs. Only thing is that it comes in a kit with shocks and is about 800 new.

        Richard you're just begging for a nice MA pot hole to kill your oil pan aren't you? :up:

        No longer stock ride height, rolling as low as a daily driver in New England should without worrying about breaking an oil pan. :up:

          Chopped housings with G60 inserts and 5" springs all the way around?

          Won't have much in the way of suspension travel, but you should be able to tuck 195/45/15.

                    FK 75/50's are lower than a cup kit. There is a set of 80/60's that I've seen before but I haven't found a set for sale in the 3 years I've been looking.

                        I got mine on ebay brand new for like $220 shipped. You would bottom out your shocks, I was real close without the drop hats. You would bottom your tire out in the wheel well too though if you run stock diameter tires.

                        I'd show you a pic but my photobucked is being a bitch at the moment.
