I searched and didnt see anyone use this B&G S2K 2000-2005 Eclipse kit (maybe thats a hint). But was still curious if i should buy them. I have a '03 GTZ with stock 16"s but want to put on 17" Evo wheels. This kit lowers 1.75 front and back on the eclipse. IF they fit, will they be to low for me to put my wheels on?

kyb agx shock/struts + tein springs are cheaper than those and i would assume better as well. I have never heard of that brand before.

it should fit but for a 1-2 hundred more than the B&G S2K, you can get full coilovers w/ adjustable ride height and adjustable damping. check our venders here and the for sale section for deals.

B&G is the mother company for Megan Racing. Im familiar with them and know they have good parts. But how much cheaper are the KYB AGX with the Tein's? And from where?

kyb agx on ebay go for 450 and the springs go for about 200...so not much cheaper but every penny counts.

I would still go with reelax and get full coilovers, much more adjustment and better handling.

Fyi watch out for the vibration when lowering a v6.
