That's a tough choice, I'd drop it first only cuz there's nothing worse then seeing a car sat on 18s and riding high.

I'd drop it first before the wheels

I think you're right I'll drop it first.

Having had coilovers on the skyline and the supra, I really don't want the 250 to feel as stiff so I'm tempted for the first time to go for springs (Eibach Pro-Kit).

Having said that I still think that coilovers are the better option but I'm worried that they'll ruin the ride in terms of comfort unless someone can convince me otherwise. Does anyone have (or been in a 250 with) BC or MeisterR coilovers?

Cheers

Or when you order them ask for a softer spring rating

Hey I have the bc racing an streets on mine an the handling is superb and the ride comfort is like it hasn't been touché drove mine to a meet in Bristol tonight an whilst going down the motorway I said to the misses the comfort even tho its lowered is amazing I really can't fault mine any setting you want is on the coilovers if I want soft I just wind them round and when I want stiff just ind the settings round even tho their not cheap their well worth the money Smile

An def lower her before you put the wheels on I put my wheels on an even tho I went 19"s it looked like a monster truck lol

Right I got the Eibach springs, they're getting on this weekend.

I also got a set of Borbet/TTE alloys in very good condition, you've probably seen theses on older GS's. I'm not sure if I'll keep them or get something else, what do you think?

They're 8.5" fronts and 10" concave rears.
