    Please help with my suspension

    Just want to say thanks for all the help so far.

    Sorry for all the questions this weekend. Been workin alot on my new car.

    Now, I want to drop the car some. I am thinking about 2 inches. I have read that the Eibach Sportlines would be about that.

    My question is, what struts should I get to match up with the Sportlines? From what I am seeing, is that alot of folks are gettin the Koni Yellows. Are these the ones to get? Kind of expensive. This is only a daily driver, to work and back.

    Any help would be great.
    Thanks

    Cole

    yes koni yellows are popular and are excellent struts, and adjustable which is nice. I think Tokico hp blues are pretty sick too. I know some people get OEM replacement style struts like kyb gr2's and they say they run fine. I am sure that they do run fine, but I would say, put a little bit more into your investment and just get something a little more aggressive to suit your new springs.

      Thanks man for the reply.

      If I go with the Sportlines and the Koni yellows, what size wheel / tire can I run?

      I am still trying to learn how to read the tire sizes.

      I wonder if I can run 16 or 17 in. wheels with this setup?

        16s wouldn't be a problem. I ran 16 inch wheels with 205/50HR16 tires with H&R race springs and tokico struts and that was a 2.5" drop. 17s would also fit with the right tires. I would say lik 215/40 or something around there.

          No problem, and yes as said above, 16's or 17's would be ok. best size for 16" wheels woul be 205-50/16, even though some people use a 45 series tire instead of the 50. only prob with that is I think they look a little too small for the wheel wells and also they throw off the speedometer by a little bit. for 17's definately 215-40/17 would fit, and maybe even 215-45/17. i guess it depends also on the offset of the wheels. but anyways if you want to learn about reading tire sizes, read this, it shoul answer any question you have:

            tokico hps are stock replacement. they are in no way comparable to konis. the konis are about as good as you can get for the cb7 and they have a lifetime warranty. theyre made to be lowered. spend the money and do it right
