I'm pretty much between TRD and Eibach since they are the mildest drop. My wheels are +38

.83 shorter... is quite a bit IMO. it'll look silly, and throw off your speedo.

but lots of people do it, so i'm not gonna comment further.

What size did you end up going with? Any difference in the way they drive from your old wheel/tire setup?

15"x6.5" +38 with 195/55/15 Falken 502's

The tires don't squeal like crazy like the stock ones did lol. My suspension is still all stock so I don't go too crazy in the turns.

i assume they are 7" wide? you should get at least a 10 mm spacer in the front and the 10 or 13 mm pg spacers then... they would sit nearly flush then. we have found that the limit is about 15x7 +25, or 15x7.5 +32.
