The "family-friendly" Drop Thread!
I know there have been a lot of threads for different types of springs/coils. I would like to start a thread for the sole purpose of the "Family-Friendly" ride quality. I personally would like to lower the car but not have to worry about the bumpy harsh ride. I would love to retain the stock ride quality if possible. In this thread please state:
1) Company name and model of spring or coil
2) Price
3) Where to get
4) Ride Quality.
5) Drop in inches.
6) Pics if possible
7) Tire/rim size
8) Rubbing issue?
I hope we can make this thread as beneificial as the other ones on this forum. Thanks!

DF210's. 154 shipped.
had my in-laws and they did not complain of any stiffness... ran 36psi.
had just me and my son in the car, he liked it.
drop is nice and low(but not stupid low), stiffer than stock but pretty
comfy for the most part running high tire pressure. 195/50/15's.

i actually got that joke!

i'm not really sure how much a fit sport lip kit would run you for.
best bet would be to ask britt
she used to have a base, but not really anymore
