Suspension question

Hey all! I was wondering if it would be possible to run a Koni Yellow, and Ground Control coilover setup on a fit. I always loved how low they dropped pretty much every other Honda, but never saw a Fit go as low. Is it possible?

It would be possible, but there isn't a setup for the fit.

I'm not trying to run bags unless I ABSOLUTELY have to. I have plenty of air ride laying around (Used to be a mini trucker), all I'd need are the struts. But I'm trying to be as low as possible static. Like in the 1"-2" range, from the ground. What coils would give be that type of drop?

koni/gc would be the best (lifetime warranty and you can choose your rates) but it isn't available. im pretty low on skunk2 coilovers



where were you planning on "measuring" your "1-2"" from?

I'm shooting for as low as possible from the jack points, or crossmembers. I personally do not own a fit, so I don't know if there are cross members. But the 1"-2" would be from the jack points.
