yup!
At least you should get Eibach drop, which will make enough difference and spend least money.

Expensive? To lower? I have to disagree bro, it's not that much, especially if you know someone that can install it for you, or if you do it. But I guess $ isn't easy for everyone as well to spend.

But I like the rims, and I'd have to say Eibach ProKit for sure! It would set the ride down enough to set the rims better!

its expensive due to getting everything you need.

springs or coilovers
camber and toe kits
and install

if want your ride dropped right and even.. then coilovers is the way to go.

No offense, but gross. Split 8 spoke does not look good without a lip in my opinion.

I don't think camber kit is needed if you go with Eibach.
Cuz rears don't drop almost at all.
