Lowering the Z

I've got a set of Eibach Sportline springs, I need to know what shocks you guys would recomend and if you have part numbers that would help too. Also, does anyone know what the largest rim size i can stuff under there with the new suspension? I'm looking to put a set of 2000 Vette rims, 18's in the rear 17's in the front. Any help would be great thanks guys.

Try doing a search in the "Autocross and Road Racing" forum. You should find tons of information there. I've heard really good things about bilsteins.

revalved bilstein HD or Koni single adjustable seem to be the more popular shocks these days...really cant go wrong either way

im not sure how wide of tires verts can handle; fwiw, a buddy of mine has his '00 TA lowered 1.5" w/ 17x11 Fikses in the rear...Diameter wise, they can handle the 18" C5s w/ no problems

when i put on my sportlines i bought a set of monroes for the front and just left my rears alone. i do have lil bit of rubbing on the front's when i turn real sharp one way or the other. this only happens when i have my prostars on with my 17's no probs rubbing as far as the 17's and 18's i dont think you will have a prob.
