Go to the KORE forum and ask them. They're working on coilover sleeves which should be done soon.

Hey dude I see you are from Cali.
Weaponn R is looking for some test vehicles for their Tib coilovers. E-mail them and you can get them cheap.

18's won't work. <img src=icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle>
Stick with 17's

18s will work on a Tib. They work on an Accent <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>. I'm not sure how far you'll be able to drop it though.

With 18's, you're best bet for a drop without any rubbing is an Eibach drop (1.2") However, if you do take some corners sharply, you may get a little rubbing, but otherwise just regular driving....you should be fine. It also depends on the offset of the rims you get too. Good luck. <img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

I don't like rubbing.<img src=icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle>

Forget everthing you have heard. You realy don't need springs. Just take them out. You will be low as hell. This would also be considered a free mod. LOL<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
