what would my celi look like if I lowered it about 1.5" all around on stock alloy rims? is it too low? what can you guys (and gals) tell me from your experiences?

tanabe claims a 2.2 inch drop in the front and a 1.5 inch drop in the rear. i have these springs with kyb struts and like the feel. i dont think it is a 2.2 inch drop though. i'd go with tanabe, trd, tein, or eibach.

Do you need different struts? like the kyb? I am not really concerned about the "ride" so much right now, just wondering if i can throw on 2" lowering springs with stock struts, or will its ruin the struts?
thanks smile.gif
