      Your car looks great! Its nice to see othr people from your area. As far as the springs go, how do they effect the ride, as it is with the 17s the tires some times rub on the inside of the wheel well. And could you possible point me towards a website that i can order these from? Thank you very much

        B+G has 1.7-1.8 drops and 2.25 drops. Ask Martin (Intruder) about his H&R(?) setup

        New dampers are recommended, the height change may not be good for shocks already broken in to a ride height.

          go ebay, just make sure you get the right one cuz you have a 98. a lot of seller would advertise their stuff as 98 - 2000. get the ones for 95 - 98.

          no rubbing whatsoever. ride seems to be the same, if you ask me.

              I installed some of those (along with KYB shocks) on my girlfriend's Protege. They're pretty good springs. The price is right, too.
