I had 'em before I got coils. They're good. Tein's a well respected brand.

Correct. And for those looking at 15s...

15x7 +18
15x7.5 +25
15x8 +25

And there are some ridiculous 0 and negative offsets as well in 8~9" widths.

There is no simple answer, but if you are going to go through the time and money, I would at least go 1.5". Anything less will be barely noticeable, and isn't the look part of why we lower our cars?

As far as brand, Eibach is a good place to start if you just want a simple, decent drop with improved handling and no real change in ride quality.

I mean seriously, what kind of car can even run some of these fitments?

A 14x10 -20? For real?

Off topic, I found some cars running 14x10 wheels, so I threw them up on my blog:

Cars running 14x10 wheels

and back on topic, lowered GE8's!
