Hey, im looking into getting some rims in the future but i was wondering how my car would look lowered but with stock rims and would that cause any problems later when i do put the rims on...im probably going with 17's

 

The Eibach kit will not cause any problems. Eibach has the mildest drop of all the springs out there at 1.2".

 

any opinions on how it will look with stock rims?

 

I think I have pics of Sonic's car around somewhere. He still has stock rims and the Eibach springs. I'll see if I can post them up tonight.

 

Sorry Random, I'm getting in before you again!!

Heres mine with the drop, with stock rims and 17" aftermarket rims -

 

1. Where can I buy some lowering springs?
2. How much are they?
3. How much is it to get it installed?
4. If I get 17 inch rims, would this cause
any problems or rubs?
Please let me know...
Thanks...

 

#1. Lots of places. Www.mhptuning.com, and just about any rice shop, and most web tuning stores
#2. Between $180 and $299 for all 4
#3. You can do it yourself with a spring compressor, but it should be about one hours worth of labor at your local shop, so about $100 tops.
#4. Depending on the size of the drop, and the offset of your wheels, they might rub, they might not. In the right offset 18's do not rub even with a drop.

Brands of spring for the Tiburon
Eibach 1.2" drop
B&G 1.5" drop
H&R 1.5" drop
King 40 MM drop (1.57")
Intrax 1.8 drop

You might want to create a new thread, asking people who have aftermarket springs how they like them.

 

getting a good set of struts will help out your ride alot and improve handling

 

I put the Eibach pro kit on my Tib before I put my rims on. It looks better, it handles better, etc. It does not rub! Stock or aftermarket. Get the proper offset and you will have no problems.
Don't forget to have your alignment done right afterwards, you don't want to burn off those pricey tires.

 

hey, i have a 1.5" drop and couldn't be happier. I also have 17" rims. The picture should be in my signiture but not always.
