I scrape A LOT less.

The only thing I really scrape now is my little "EZ LIP" thing, but it's foam/rubber...so it's fine. :P

Im looking to lower my YF withing the next coming month or so.
Been looking at 3 different coilover brands (k-sport, Stance & BC), does anyone have feedback on any of these brands?....

I'm looking for feedback from someone who has a set of those coilovers installed on their car, looking to hear how ride quality/hadling is compared to stock.

Thanks. I initially had two sets (first and second gen) went with newer style because they seemed slightly more aggressive looking. I lucked out and was made aware of this set by a friend from work who is into to stance/fitment.

so, i own a silver gls, that I have added the 18 inch turbo wheels on which im veeerrrrryyyyyy happy about lol...

i have been thinking of dropping it a bit because the gap between the body and tires is KILLING me !!!! lol

My brother and fellow male friends are telling me not to mess with the suspension of the car, it will never ride the same, it will start giving you issues, yata yata yata....

Im over the yip yap they are giving me, so I decided to get on the forum and ask a few questions to those owners of beautiful and tastefully dropped turbos

is the ride stiffer?
which coil springs are the best?
or which ones are most recommended?
how much of a drop should i give it if i decide to do so?
will anything else around or under the car suffer because of the drop?

::sigh::

so answers to these an any other comments to throw in there are greatly appreciated.

Thank you guys

The ride is slightly stiffer
H&R'S are the best IMHO
Nothing will suffer you might want to upgrade your struts , I have my stock ones still. Put it this way my wife has been riding in it since I lowered it and hasn't noticed any ride quality difference.
