Hi,

Just had a question. I heard with a coilover set up it will rub with 19" wheels. Is this true? I just purchased a set of 19 hre and want to lower the car, at the same time i need new shocks (60k miles) the car rides stiff and hits bumps hard and sharp even now with stock 17 wheels. so im wondering if i should get full coilover system or replace shocks and get lowering springs. does anyone know what stock parts will cost? to install?

thanks,

junior
