Since you're looking for that much of a drop, you should look into getting either the H&R OE Sport springs (F-0.75"/R-0.75") or the Eibach Pro-Kit springs (F-1.5"/R-1.3"). I've got the H&R Sport springs (F-1.75"/R-1.5") and I do experience a little bit of rubbing in the front on hard turns, but thats about it. I should also mention that I have 17" wheels. But the front drop is a little more than what you're looking for... .

one of the reasons he may have that gap is because 205/40/16 are 1inch shorter than stock tires which means it is 1/2 inch shorter from the wheel well, *which does make a difference in look*

i say he needs the 1.75 in front to match up to rear, i have 97 Sedan and my rear sits 1 1/2 from fender to tire, and front sits OVER 3", I have no CLue as to y...

but in next few months i am going with Koni Yellows and GC coilovers, they seem to be a great set up, and since my front and rear are so much different it will be impossible to get a set of 1" rear and 2 1/2" front so that it sets 1/4"-1/2" from wheel well to tire

anyone have this set up *KONI with GC coilover? h0w do u like it?
i am not going to adjust the coilover, but like i said i want it so i can adust everything to sit perfect height all the way around... and i will def get a Camber kit and 4Wheel alignment when i put everything on
