Looking for lowering springs. Help and suggestions!
Okay so if there is one part of the car that I don't understand very well it's suspension... I just put on some 18 inch wheels and am looking for 1 inch lowering spring but I don't not want problems with my suspension or having to buy a second or 3rd pair of springs. I would like to have a comfortable ride and still be able to get on it and take some corners. I drive spiritedly a few times a week. I don't do track and every now and then I like to drift my car around a corner for fun... What are the springs for me? I do not want a bouncy ride. I will eventually have my car turbo'd and will be doing quarter miles for fun as well.

They are desinged for stock struts by a company that really knows suspension. The retain comfort while improving handling. Just be sure to add front camber when you get aligned afterwords.

My last requirement is for the gap between my tire and fender to be tight and sleek. Is a 3/4 inch drop enough for that? I was thinking I would need at least 1 inch to justify how much I'll have to pay for Springs and install

Not the best picture but this is what my car looks like now with the 18inch wheels Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk |
Here is how RCE Yellows sit.

Gosh everything you guys are telling me sounds awesome but I wanted to sit a little tighter to the wheel 😳
I do have 18 inch wheels just not sure how much more of a gap difference that will make. I went 225/40/18 Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk |

Here's a little better idea of the gap I currently have. I want it to be tight almost hugging the wheel where maybe fit a finger with ease. Am I asking for too much? Lol Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk |
Look into Eibach Pro/TRD springs (1" down) and Eibach Sportline springs (1.4" down).
The lower you go, the more firm the ride gets. It's a natural consequence of shortening the available suspension travel while still trying to stay off the bump stops. |
1.4 seems a little much and I've read reviews of the sport lines not playing out to well with the stock struts. I'm thinking 1 inch would be perfect but what 1 inch Springs will compare to the RCE's feel?
