Lowering HELP!!
i am in a postion with an idependent retailer to get myself any suspension setup i want...and i need help from you guys!!!
I am looking into APEX lowering springs (1.5" drop), B&G (1.7" drop) and RACTIVE COILOVERS (0-3" drop) . Are these good brands? ANd i am running on 17" 205/40 +40 offset rims and i had ppl in the car today and it was slammed out, rubbing on bumps in the fenders..do i need a stiffer spring/strut???
need this help quick!!
thanks
