Hello,
I have a 2002 S. New 18 deep dish rims required 7mm spacers to clear the springs front and rear. It clears the springs by no lie 2mm.

I want the upgrade the shocks to a lower more sport rather than a race shock.
I also want it easily adjustable so I can go from track to street without a huge hassle.
Now, here is the question,
With my rim situation as it is, is the way to go new springs or complete coilover change. I do not want to get bigger spacers....
Does anyone know if the new springs or new coilover smaller or bigger than OEM?
What brand should I go with? eibach, HR, generic no name?
Thanks for any help,
James
