Coilover suggestion?

Long explanation short: Since upgrading to 18s, my Eibach Sportlines sit a bit higher and I want to slam the car. What coilovers offer the biggest potential drop and also offer static function? Sorry, I have little knowledge of coils since i've never purchased them before. I'm also on a tight budget, I can push it out a few months but i'm basically at $1200 absolute max :/

why not?Cars are like art...you make em the way you want it, whether track,DD, or looks "stanced,slammed". Respect each others style not everybody has the same idea and virtue when it comes to certain things; cars.

stance,fortunes,Cusco if you can afford, BC, Ksport. Just remember suspension should never be taken lightly just because you put coils thats it, theres more to it LCA,endlinks..etc do some research alot of people in this forum talks alot about it (threads) good luck

Tein street flex might be around that price. The street basis are only $800 and are my recommendation under $1,000.

BC is popular with the low crowd though although i'd rather run the teins or eibach pro street.
