Which suspension ?

Hi guys, One of my friend own an 2006 Es lancer and he find that the car is too much high with his 17inch wheels. We found too many brand on the web but don't know wich one to take. Tein, apex, goldline... He wants to get a drop around 1.5 in front, not much... at an affordable price. What are you suggest to me ? Thanks

Cheapest option is to go with drop springs. I reccomend the Tein S techs.

But if you want more than just looks, I would spend the money on coilovers.

Do the tein S-tech and the RRm kit are the same ? And for the owner, how is the daily drive ?

tein's springs work fine....but if your looking for a certain drop, you might wanna go full coilover set up which is any where from 800-1200 bucks....i recommend K sports or the full tein coilover set up....

both have adjustable set ups and are great all the way around
