Coilover suggestions?
 
Going specifically for an extremely low drop, and don't care too much for performance. What is the best coilover setup you suggest that is the best buy for under $1000?

This is the LOW that I want!

Bag it.

Yeah, bags if you want to go that low, but for under $1k, I've seen the bc extreme drop coils go pretty low.

If you want to go extremely low without looking retarded, buy a Go-Kart.

For that low, you have no choice but to bag it. otherwise there is no method to get your car on ramps, or off ramps for that matter once the drop has been done.

I'd say BC Racing extreme drops. I mean I'm not that low, but I could be if I wanted to. I dropped mine 2 1/4" and thats low enough where I can still get in my driveway

I'll second the guys above comment. I could barely get on an alignment rack being low like I am. It took many boards to do it.

You're going to need adjustable suspension arms to run that much camber. You won't be able to achieve that look under $1,000...unless you really cut some serious corners and basically ruin your suspension lol

You dont need bags to be this low. My last car was really low, and I had no problems with driveways, just taking them slower and the occasional scrape.

^^ Did you look at the picture of the red car with like 1/2" of ground clearance? No chance you were that low static and able to get into anything except glass smooth roads.

Not that low, but was less than 2" from the ground. The red car is pretty "lip" low, which makes his car look lower about an inch.
