1"-1.5" drop seems like its too high??
I was interested in getting my car dropped, but im not sure wheather or not i should get some coilovers or get the spring and strut combo. I was looking at the drop on the eibachs and they say 1.3" in the front and 1" in the rear. I went out and measured it from the top of my fender and it looked as if it is going to sit really high still. I'm planning on putting some 17"s on my car, will that help fill in the rest of the gap? HELP

wheel gap is kinda relative to the profile of your tire sidewalls. if you have 225/45/17's then it should look pretty good. if you went with 215/45/17's or 225/40/17's they may look like the car is
still lifted.
the rule of thumb for dressup is to have wheelgap 1/2 the width of your sidewall or less. with 1.3in drop, you won't be able to achieve this, but it will still look pretty good.
