Best option to drop?
So I wanna drop my Pro5. I just dont know what the best options are. I was thinking of the GC coilovers but have read that there not all that. I dont need coilovers, I just havent found springs that will drop at least 2" off of fender gap. Anyone have any suggestions and/or pics with eibachs or other quality springs installed?

the current springs that are available for our cars only give you about 1 1 /2 inches of drop....you really only have one other choice...and that would be coil overs if you insist on getting at least 2 inches of drop.

The springs Ive seen with the lowest drop, I think 1.8" if not 2", are Apex. I dont know anything about the quality of their springs, but they're out there if you want to try them out or contact the manufacturer.

my skunk2s' are pretty cool. 4 inch drop or 1 inch drop, whatever you want.

I just recently dropped my pro5 with Eibachs, and it looks damn good to me. I can still go to the same places that have steep driveways without having to find another way If you want a drop where the fender is nearly touching the tire, dont go with the Eibachs, the eibachs are for a better stance and still maintain very good clearance, including ride quality. Ill post pics tomorrow of my car so you can see. There supposed to give you a 1.4" drop in the rear and 1.2" in the front. I think

Just got Eibachs for my P5
I just got Eibach Pro Kit for my P5 yesterday. I love the little gap and the ride is close to the factory's, nice, a little stiffer but not too hard. I haven't had to drive or turn too slow onto driveways and stuff. I would recommend them, so far... I am just afraid of it setting (getting a little lower with prolonged use)...
