I am going to get my car lowered here before too long, but I need to think long term, as I may get a body kit in the future as well. Would I be ok if I got the AAS kit and the ST or Intrax springs, or should I stick with the Eibachs? I can't be too low as the roads out here can get pretty dang rough and alot of entrances to stores etc. can be pretty steep. I am really just not sure how much lower the body kit will go. When we did my buddies Avenger, it dropped it about 9 inches, and we could not even fit out toe between it and the ground!!! I just need some advice so I can get it done within the next couple of months, but not have to redo it down the road...
Thanks guys,
Rob

And that is from the BOTTOM of his stock bumper. It was less that 1.5 inches from the ground!!! That is with his heated stock springs... :Noooo: but even with the stockers it was still something like 3 inches from the ground. A PITA to go around town in, that's for sure!!!

We are rollin a lil off topic, so one last comment. We used to joke about how he needed a sign saying "no fat b*tches" cuz if he didn't get a skinny chick, his car would be on the ground!!! :lol: And before anyone thinks that is a distasteful comment, my fiance when I met her was someting like 250 or 270...hell I don't remember but :P

Ho- my god.... ive never heard of cars bottoming out with ST... at least until now maybe, idk, but the AAS only adds about 1-2" and the STs thats 2 inches so look at it this way, yer front bumpers going to be about 5"s lower
