HELP! Suspension Mods on 86.5 and 16" Tire Sizing Advice *FREE*

There are a few options for the suspension that you can do, but it all depends on the money you want to spend. The cheaper way to go is to get some good lowering springs and new struts. I have eibachs and kyb GR2s which give alittle harsher ride than stock. You can also get some bigger diameter sway bars that will give better steering response. And if you need or choose to you can do the control arm bushings. As far as wider tire, you could go a little wider say 235 but the wider you go the more expensive they get. Most people with the wide tires in the rear are pushing higher hp numbers than stock.
