HOWEVER it seems 2 me most ppl out there dunno the correct way 2 slam (lower their ride). i'm not boasting or anything (i'm no sifu so pls dun flame flame)... yea sure at da end of the day the car's lookin really tricked-out cos its god damn low but then they end up with handling problems, the tyres hitting the arches or the suspension setup being really uncomfortable. cutting ur springs is a no-no, like the others sed, get adjustables. i use HWL hi/lo hard/soft coilovers n i recommend it. other nice brands include TEIN, TITAN and tanabe jus 2 name a few... oh yea eibach federn n koni yellows r damn good too.so what i'm trying 2 say is u gotta play around a bit until u find the RIGHT COMBINATION (rim size, tyre size, offset, suspension type etc)... for example having adjustables is only half the battle won, if ur rim offset 2 big etc you'll b compromising handling and comfort. pls know u CAN get a f.cking slammed ride but STILL HAVE comfort n good handling... some frens of mine slam maximum, but then their suspension is rock hard 'n' really not comfy. but then again, hehe u gotta remember where u go, once u slam there'll b quite a number of places u can't go cos KL's population of speed bumps and shitty roads is more than people!! :) also i myself have trouble going up shopping mall parking like in sg. wang downtown :( so pls think b4 u slam dude! anyways i hope this helps a bit but i'm no sifu, jus my 2 cents! :)</blockquote>
