not sure if i understand the obvious mistake? if ur saying i wasted money on coilovers because i could of achieved the same ride hieght with springs ok thats great but springs are not gunna perform near as well as these omni sports are for autocross... and maybe u havnt read the previous post were i said the damn wheels in the fender and if i lower it more it will rub! so unless u wanna buy me new azenis after tearing them up in a couple thousand then sure illl lower it more so i can bottom out over every bump... my car is very low and looks good and like i said once it sags and settles and i make a final ajustment then it will be lower... conversation over

your not even CLOSE to running out of lowering on those omni's .. you do have the ones with the adjustable shock mounts right? .. where the bottom threads up and down when you loosen the lower locking collar. My car is dumped WAY lower i rub a little but i also have 15x8 vs the 15x6.5 you have. Also i can still go atleast another 1" lower on my set up and i have agx's and GC's.

-rubbing will not destroy your tires BUT a bad alignment and camber wear will
-your coilovers MAY not be best for auto crossing because if they are not dampening adjustable then you wasted your money
-a simple adjustable SHOCK and proper spring rates will be the better choice for a proper handling car

not picking a fight just using your own answers against you

i did not waste my money there set at stiff al the time there sport tuned not street there much stiffer for harder driving... the threads are almost all the way up in the front only by a cm so there as low as they go.. the cars freakin low and it looks good look at the picture joshs car is just a little lower and his is dumped you guys are acting like its sitting on like 1.5 inch lowering springs or some shit... i know how to adjust my coilovers and i know when the locking colar is all the way up almost and it is...

just incase you do wanna go loower you can take off the spanner nuts or what ever there called. trying to help you out unless you dont like advise. i see you say you like it at the ride hight so leave it. idk but most of the time when you think you are going to rub you are far from it there are things you can do like roll your fenders and other stuff if you wanna go lower. but you like the ride hight so keep it.
