there's a million threads on lowering and rubbing issuse..you're fine with 18's...get coils and set your own ride height.

does your ride scrape because yours looks pretty nice

I'm lowered on Teins. You'll be fine.

Hehe, yup! Girlfriend is on vacation in China with her family, so I suddenly have all sorts of free time before I start my new job next week (I hope..).

nope, i'm on stock 16s though...will be getting 19's soon. I just take it easy over speed bumps and such.

i have 18inch rim and drop with eibach, don't scrape, unless i have 3 big people in the back and going up my drive way

[mangaunit]

how many inch do u have it lowered

[Punks_Not_Dead5]

Eibach on a V6 is 2" front, 1.2" rear (what mine is) for the I4 1.4" front, 1.2" rear

If you want the S Techs go on the website and it will tell you how much it will drop.

my gen 5 i4 is on megan racing springs that settle to 2" all around and i'm not rubbing 99% of the time with 18"x7.5 w/ 42 offset wrapped with 225/45R18. the only time i've experienced rubbing was with 4 occupants, luggage, and a large+sudden dip on the road. otherwise- it's all gravy. teins settle a little less than 2", so it should be gravy for you too.
