The only options I could find that also met constraint #1 were coilovers.

Which reminds me, I need to update this thread w/ pics of my coilovers sometime, hehe. Though there's not much to look at since I'm temporarily back on stock wheels.

Are you sure that they won't fit on stock struts? I'm not entirely convinced its not possible. I've been searching in the wheel fitment thread and I've gotten a confirmation that 9.5 +40 will fit on RCE Yellows.
