Trying to Decide How Low to Go :)

[Zhu Tou]

Hi everyone

I've ordered BC Racing coilovers but can't decide how low to go, at least initially. All sorts of factors are in play - aesthetics, ride comfort, aero kit (if I can somehow perform some sort of witchcraft to get them in Canada), etc.

I've scoured the site for pictures, but figured that it may be best to create a post.

For those that have lowered their S51s, could you please post pictures and indicate:

1. Amount lowered
2. Wheel diameter
3. Method of lowering - springs, coilovers, cut springs (hahaha)
4. Your thoughts of the difference, if any, in ride quality, handling, noise, etc

Thanks!

You should be able to find info in the Garage section. Here’s my qx70 with parts listed

Thanks dubb

I had already gone through the Garage pics, but decided to create a post as I was hoping for specifics on how much lowering others (particularly those with coilovers) had performed and what their driving impressions were.
