Changing front tires to a much lower profile would work...<a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/vracer111\" target=\"_blank\">My \'98 Camaro</a><br /><br /><a href=\"http://www.honda-tech.com/garage?cmd=viewcar&id=1223\" target=\"_blank\">My \'98 Tacoma</a>

Spindle drops are good because they retain the original (or aftermarket in your case) components ... although I haven't seen them (or really looked) for them for our cars. As far as safety and reliability goes, spindle drops (from a good company) are good.\'97 Firebird 3.8 ... 1/4 mile = 12.50 (minutes)

Switch over from the Eibachs to a coilover kit like the Ground Controls would work. I could prob drop any corner until the tire rubs the top of the well, with all the adjustment range I have.
The spring jackers give you the ability to tweak the height exactly where you want, a big bonus to putting in a set of springs and hoping you like the height and it's even.Drivetrain Moderator - "There are no stupid questions, only stupid people!"

You could prob reuse the bilsteins, and eventually send them out to get revalved to better match the spring rates you end up with.
Not sure what the springs are going for in the for sale section, try a search there.Drivetrain Moderator - "There are no stupid questions, only stupid people!"
