1.4" lowering front and rear.

I'm wondering if they have any performance benefits apart from being the lowest kit i've seen out there....

Peace

PS. Anyone have any pics?

 

Who the hell is B&G?

 

I have B&G springs on my car. I thought it was 1.5 drop front and back. Anyways...I was actually going to post a new thread but i can use this one .

So i have the 1.5 drop and I have the 15 inch Riken mesh rims, the ones with the polished lip. In the back is 205/50/15 and every bump (except for really small ones) the sidewall of the tires rubs the wheel well and in a few months time, I need new tires already I dont understand this cuz i hear of guys putting 17's on there car with no probs.


My question is does anyone know the offset of the Riken rims i have? My mechanic told me that the offset might be wrong but how can it be if i have a GSL which means the Rikens are specially made to fit the 12a bolt pattern?

If anyone has a pair of good condition set of panasports they want to trade for a pair of mint old school rikens let me know


And on a side note...the car is really stiff with the springs and really tight.

I dont have pics by the way Jeff sorry.

 

who is b&g where'd you get em' and how much??

 

there url is there name and they have been in Europe for years. Its a german company I think. I payed just under 700 for the springs and tokico blues in canadian $

 

www.shox.com has them all for the cheapest.

Its 200 US for the B&G springs, and then like $120 US for the blues.

I'm going with the illuminas tho. And a custom spring set.

My car is going to be very low. I like fancy things. yay.

 

lower than 1.5? you might have the same problem I do.

 

WHat are the availible spring rates?

 

i have b&g with 205/50/15s on kosies, no rubbing,

have yet to take my car on a track and really tune the suspension so i cant say on the handeling.

it is way better than stock though.

 

My offset must be fucked then...not right for the 1.5 drop
