Not true. Wheels without suspension looks much worse than stock wheels with a drop.

To answer your question. In my opinion an eibach drop with 18's wont do much..almost pointless. If you drop it lower with s-techs or hr's you will be slammed and will tuck then you will need spacers which you say you dont wanna do. If you want CV1's get them with a drop, springs are only a couple hundred $. If you dont want to spend a lot of money buy used, that is your best bet. I think there are CV1's for sale on here now. I know I have to sell mine soon when my new wheels get here, like a month or so.

I have both, but it mainly depends on your drop. I think getting the rear camber kit is the best idea for any drop because it is pretty cheap and works.

alright thanks man. I just did all this math and the total cost of cv1 brand new with tires, drop, and camber kit = $2,992.50 whereas the axis setup = $2,239.34
these final totals include all shipping charges. im not counting installation because my dad has a mechanic shop and he is going to mount/install.

the reason why im leaning towards the vossen setup is because i can sell the wheels and not lose a lot of money, with the axis wheels i doubt anyone will buy them.

What do you think about these prices i calculated? sound correct?
