Coilovers include shocks/struts and springs together as a matched package

I think there are a few brands making them already. Megan, Tein, KBee, T1R just to name a few. I am sure with more research you can find more.

they make tons of coilovers for the fit, even cusco has a set

but if your talking about sleeve types on stock struts, please dont be an idiot and rock that combo unless you really want to ride like a ****ing train

i was assuming he was talking about the sleeve type coilovers. i dont want a set of full body 48 way adj race setup, i just want to set the ride heighth myself. that doesnt mean i want to give it an 8" drop on stock struts.

Yes, it rubs along the entire undercarriage, inside each fender, and anyone sitting in the back.

I've got ride height adjustable coilovers. they're amazing. KBee is the brand, I got them from a spec, they're top notch. https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/spec...ver-japan.html
