If you can't afford coilovers, I would go with the H&R's. Everything I have ever heard about them is positive!

H&R's. If you're pinched for cash, I ran the Pro-kit with my old KYB's and was very happy for the money. I was running stock poneys, but with the size tires you have it should be about the same.

Click to expand...

They are 17*9's all the way around..I run a 235/45/17 on the front and 275/40/17 on the rear...

The back rubs a hair if I start to back up a small embankment...It will only take me about 3 minutes to fix it when I remember to do it. It is lowered ~ 1 1/2"
