Anyone have BMR Boxed SFCs & lowering springs?
Does anyone have BMR boxed SFCs & lowering springs? I'm just curious because I just got an Eibach Pro-Kit for Christmas and I'm wondering if I'm going to have any clearance issues with those SFCs once I put the Pro-Kit on the car. I believe the Pro-Kit drops the car 1.5" (Front) & 1.3" (Rear). Any info regarding this matter will be much appreciated.

I read that off of their site before. However, I didn't really plan on lowering the car when I put the Boxed SFCs on, my prime concern was strength. But since I've got a Pro-Kit for free, I now want to lower the car. I was just wondering if anyone had the boxed SFCs and a 1" drop and how clearance is. I figure I'll be OK as long as I don't have much more of a drop than what the Pro-Kit will do. For example, going with the Sportline lowing kit from Eibach drops the car 1.9"+. That might be a little much with boxed SFCs. However, I'm not going to get rid of my boxed SFCs just because I'm going to be putting lowering springs on. I'm just trying to get a feel for how the car will be once I drop it with my existing setup. Thanks again.

Your exhaust will hit the ground before the sfc will.

From what many people have said, it seems that the Y-pipe will scrape before anything else. Especially once I go with an aftermarket piece. Thanks for the info Warbird.
