No ones Dropped on 18's?

Hey everyone, i've been researching and searching through threads like crazy and cant seem to find any dropped Non Sport G Coupe owners rolling on the factory 18's. i'd be interested in seeing how a H&R Spring drop, An S-Tech spring drop, and anything similar on the stock 18's would look before i purchase a set of springs. Ive seen the drops on the Sport 19's but just before i pull the trigger i'd like to see the drops on the 18's since thats what i'm rolling on.

I know everyones going to say just save up for coilovers, i'm not gonna track or massively drop the car. i'll eventually get coilovers and a nice set of custom wheels trust me, but getting engaged and a few other priorities are above getting crazy with it.

just as a reference, here's my car before a drop.



Thanks in advance for the help

Mike i've seen pictures of your sedan with a drop but doesnt really help.

i just checked out samurai 's car and that helps a bit, but i still would be interested in just spring drops at the moment.

looking for Samurai's eibach drop i found Lt8Che g37x drop with spacers... which is most likely what i'll do but with an s-tech drop since its lower

I don't know if this will help... Not the stocks, of course, but slammed via air on 18s.
