i was just with a MSP with teins.

My left rear scrubs on uneven right turns or big dips...im looking to upgrade with skunk2 COILS.
 
^^^^^^^^^^thats a nice looking ES you got there chicohond@91, wat kinda suspension u got?

thanks blkonblkMSP, but you're going to laugh. they're stock springs, with 3 1/2 loops cut on them. i bought it with 2 loops cut so i went ahead and made it look even better until i get some coilovers which is the only thing that is going to be closed to my drop. it doesnt scrape, for how low it is. at least...

that's really weird, my car is more dropped than yours, and i have the RX-8 Wheels 18x8 and I have no rubbing at all, at any circunstances even with 4 people sitting on the back and a front passenger.. you might need to put 215/35/17 tires

How do you like the espelirs? My friend is thinking about getting them for his XB.

I love em. Perfect drop and comfortable ride. I believe the hardest part is finding them, at least for proteges.

Hmmm Idk I have never had an all wheel allinement done maybe that would help? there 215/45/17 which is the stock tire size and I have s-tech springs so the back is not much lower. do you think offset from +45 to +48 would have anything to do with it? Its such a minor difference though I wouldn't think it would but???

Haha. True, but you've the nice black headlight housings. I will have those one day! I've got the only Pro in the bay area with the chrome ones apperently. Every Pro I see has the nice black ones. (doh) And I just noticed you shaved door moldings. That looks damn nice. Ugh, add one more thing to the list of mods!
