I Picked up a set of TC rims for ultra cheap to go on my 95 gt. I want to lower it with an eibach kit and was wondering a few things: spacers(sizes), tires(size), and shock choice.

I've read that 225/45/17 are recommended. Is that at stock ride height or would that work lowered too?

38mm spacer for rear brings it to 7mm. That too far? Should I get the 25mm? I like hellaflush style, but not necissary.
And 15mm for front? Im not sure. Getting rear fenders rolled, I gathered that much.

Lastly, what shock is recommended to use with the lowering springs?

I appreciate all help and input. Thank you.

I'm looking to lower it just purely for style. Most things on this car will be about looks. It's not going to be auto crossed or anything like that. Just a nice looking little car to toodle around in. Like my version of a 70 year olds corvette. Just want to know the right way to setup the scion rims to look nice fitting and get best ride I can. Tire size being stock is not a concern. And with the knowledge base here I'm sure I can achieve this in a more cost effective manner than trial and error. wink.gif

Main thought is I don't want to be rubbing inside fender wells and ruining panels or tires. The eibachs drop it 1.5" and I put spacers on to give it a nicer stance, what size rubber would be advisable with what size spacers? Thanks to all.
