rmn 0 Posted January 26, 2005 Well i will start it, i have koni coilovers, powerflex bushes, speedline 16's with goodyear eagle f1 rubber and brembo's to stop :lol: i like that setup oh yeah and some eibach arb's sitting in the garage to get fitted in the next few days with a lower strut brace Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted January 26, 2005 Similar setup to rmn actually - koni ride / height adjust, h&r springs (I think), same 16" (16x7 ET35) speedlines but on Toyo Proxes T1-S - think its probably dropped about 30-40mm overall. Picture: I find that the car understeers a lot more than it used to when I was riding on BMW E30 BBS wheels (15x7.5 ET25 I think) - but used to have Eagle F1 GSD3's on those and the grip was phenomenal off them.
