Yo wasup. Im getting 5Zigen Typhoons 17x8 32offset(gunmetal) or Konig Holes 17x8 32offset(gunmetal) and I figure since i have the money I want to lower my car. Should I use springs(no.) or should I buy the Tein basic coilovers(yes). Also, does anyone know the range of adjustabilty in inches, cuz I live up in New England and in the summer its beautiful but the winter its snowy. So I need to be able to attain stock hieght wit these coilovers but also needa be able to drop them like 2-2/1/2". I figure the range is about 0-3" but im not sure. How good are Tiens?

A) you could search, as Teins are talked about all the time
B) call Tein
C) you can jack the coilovers up even higher than stock ride height.
