    I can go from about 2 inches raised to somewhere around 4 inches dropped. Air is so much fun.

    I'll bet lowering the rear won't change the rear ends squirliness.

    Yeah Dman, after I put my 18's on it looked really funny until I lowered it. IMO lowering is a must for 18's, or any nice wheels for that matter. Getting new wheels is kinda pointless without filling in that ugly wheel gap, this is just my opinion tho.

    I dropped mine 1 1/2" on Neuspeed springs which nobody else seems to have. They haven't totally settled in yet, so it looks like it hasn't really been dropped, but i can see the difference. I have 15 inch wheels.

    I'm droping my LX-i 2"s and I'm replacing my 205/45ZR16 tires and rims with 205/40R17 tires and rims, I'm gonna stick with the Milli Miglia Spyders, but I'm gonna get one size bigger.

    If you can drift it properly the booty shaker steering syndrome isn't that bad... :P

    I pulled a sweet clutch-kick drift around a 90-deg corner near my friend's house. This is where you jerk the steering wheel a little too far into the turn, kick the clutch while jerking it back to straight plus half the angle in the opposite direction, slide, then downshift toward the end of the curve to get more torque and pull you out of the slide. I did this at about 60, dropped to 40 mph in the crux of the turn. It was dope and I have stock suspension.

    Drifting is fun but it tears the hell out of your tires even if you're pretty good at it.
