is there any aftermarket springs will drop the front about 0.8 inch? the drop with the oem sport springs is barely noticeble and still too much of a gap. I know most aftermarket springs such as the prokits (I have) or H&Rs will drop the the front about 1.2 inch. does anyone know what kind of aftermarket springs will drop the front about 0.8 inch? this is all I need because I dont want to go lower. even coilovers, most of them drop the front 1.2 inch or more. the only ones that can go higher are the KWs which I cant afford. anyone know where I can get some? many thanks!

hey bro,
I believe jic, nex, and ksport will drop the front in the 1.2-2 inch range which is too low for me because I am running 20's with tire size 245/35/20. it is scary to run tires size 245/30/20 in my opinion since they offer little protection for the rims plus I think it will look better with more meat on the tires. With the KWs, I can adjust to the highest setting which is about .8 inch. I wish I can afford that but not right now. what I want to know is is there any aftermarket springs that will lower my front .8 inch only?

Dude, I am running the same front tire as you and I'm on KSPorts. I have about a half inch gap in the front and I don't rub at all.
My tire specs are:
F - 245/35/20
R - 285/30/20
With the KSports (and I am sure the Nex and JIC and KW as well) you can go anywhere from 4wheeler look - I had this right out of the box
to low as you want, I still can drop my fronts another 2 inches and the rears another 1.5 inches, I won't because a slight gap with the 20's filling the wheel wells is good for me - but i could
