I have searched through a couple pages and searched about info about a 2G AWD with 18" rims suspension setups and came out with nothing usefull.

Please tell me information about this setup. Springs, Coil Overs, Shocks etc. Tell how much of drop, ride quality and any modifying to fenders if rub also. And pictures would help greatly also. Thanks :thumb:
 
I don't see how it would be much different than a FWD with 18s, aside from you still being able to hook up, the spring rates are not that far apart if at all from what I have found.

I run Illumina 5-ways and Sportlines, the drop is too much and the ride quality sucks for daily driving but you get used to it. You would need to roll the rear fender lips to correct the negative camber caused by this setup.

I would recommend Illuminas and Eibach Pro-Kits for a fairly inexpensive setup that will be daily driven.
 
True.

I was going to go with the Pro-Kit. But I didn't have the slightest clue on what type of shocks. The ride quality is important. But not the biggest thing that will get on my nerves. Like you said. I will probally get used to it in a matter of time.

Thanks for the info and reply.
