I was wondering if my springs will settle/drop a little bit the more i drive on them.i got the b&g extreme 2.25" lowering springs,kyb struts,& 17" rims on 40 series tires.I was expecting it to be lower than it is.they've been on for a couple weeks but I don't drive it much ,usually only on weekends when it's nice.[trying to keep the mileage down]

they might stay right where they are, because you bought new struts too, i think it was negatize who who did a setup, with new struts and springs, and it really didnt lower it too much......HELLO MY NAME IS BEN...

Yeah, You can see in my sig what the wheel gap is on my protege.. That is with 13 inch wheels and mazdaspeed shocks. I wouldn't even advice for my car to be lower, because when you neal down and look at the crossmember it is about 4 to 5 inched away from the ground. (maybe more maybe less. )
I would really love to get my hands on some JIC magic coilovers though. They make them for the 3rd gens. I don't know if the 3rd gens have similar rear engine mounts, but if they do.... Then the only real obsticle would be custom drilling the holes in the front strut tower 3 or 4 .. That would be some real handleing for my 2nd gen. hehe.
