Cut your springs.

I think the yellows are the errr (english fail incoming) minimal lowest you can go without going coils route. Don't recall anything else out there.

^yep. Yellows or Mann Engineering 25mm drop are the lowest I believe

It's not like a 1 inch drop will make you scrape, look stanced, or otherwise be detrimental. Just drop it the full inch. If it's so little as to be unnoticeable then why even bother?

Just get the RCE yellows. The difference between 12.5mm and 20mm is pretty minimal. The spring rates are nice, too.

So wait, are there coils that have less than 20mm? I mean, I'm probably 95% likely to get RCE, but at this point I'm more curious than anything.

You can adjust coils to any height you want (within their specs, ofc). If I'm wrong, then I need to go back and read.

But yeah, the yellows are cheaper than coils and give really subtle yet still noticeable drop. I planned on going this route but plans changed and only spending money on consumables now.

Really wanted to stick a naked anime girl on my car.
