makes me want to lower my 4 door for a little better handling and to jazz up the looks a bit


Not to thread jack but lowering a car past a certain point will reduce suspension travel and make a car handle worse.

#339403 True, finding the right balance is key but it is not easy. Asking a good tuner may be a good option...

#339411 ya lowering it will lower your center of gravity, but without proprer travle and spring rate its gonna be bumppy . but unless your really hitting some turns at high speed i wouldnt worry about it. im on some cheap ass coilovers and my car is slammed. but i will be buyin a nice setup. and it will get my pockets but in the long run will be worth it. i know from exp. proly gonna run function form type2 set up. i hade type 1 on my sedan and they were awsome. not set to slam your ride but they will lower it to a nice stance and still give you full travle. but that just my 2 cents but look into some set ups there is a sticky on here about suspension and setups. :thumb:

#339419 slam it. worst thing is bottoming out and tearing axle boots. and tire wear. but i have seen some bad drops and they still never have any major issues. since you seem to be short on cash you may want to consider what may happen if lowered to much without proper setup. i blew my shocks in 2 weeks after i slamed it down. rides like crap but looks cool haha. plus it wont stay that way.
