Hey everyone

I have a few questions I could really use some opinions on, before I go drop a bunch of money. I have a 95 Celica hatchback thats just about bone stock. It's got the 15" wheels yada yada...


Suspension:

1. I've read that alot of people here have and recommend the Tein S-tech lowering springs. If I went with them, would I need other parts as well like new shocks, sway bars etc.?

2. If the car is used as a daily driver, is it comfortable at all?

3. Could I fit 17" wheels after its lowered"

Wheels & Tires:

1. What width and offset on the wheels should I get if I want the tires to be flush with the fenders (not stick out past them)...and not rub? 8" seems to be popular, but I don't have alot of custom street shops here in Missouri to try before I buy.

2. What about tire size with a 17" wheels?

I want to be able to get over speedbumps and into driveways without draggin... so gettin the right combo of suspension, wheels and tires is really important for me. Thanks for any input you can give me.

here is what i would do...

spring = eibach sportlines.... tein are ok, but way too low for my taste.

shocks= get new kyb oem replacements. old stocks on a lowered car go in a few months time. so do the job once and do it right.

wheels= 17x8 35offset

tires = 225-45-17

wheels= 17x8 35offset

tires = 225-45-17

If you are going with a 8" wide rim, I would get 235/40/17. The sidewall is about the same as a 215/45/17 and the tire patch and wheel size (gearing) will be better.
