my personal opinion is 18"ers and lower it. search around in the picture and video forum and a lot of people have pictures in the sign.

uhh.. springs/ struts?
Coilovers ftw if u have the money.
A guy on here KYSE has 19s and is lowered, as does my buddy with his widebody solara, he has 19s on coilvers. they look great but depending on the roads in your area id stick with 18s to be safe.

Do you do the lower yourself?
How much would it cost to hire it out?

did mine myself, if at worst case scenario that you need to replace the sway bar endlinks, you're lookin at around 200 bucks to replace all 4. (and some change for the nuts/bolts). if you have a shop do it they will charge you that plus labor and who knows what else and then you can expect roughly AROUND 250-even 600 bucks to lower your car.
The biggest issue isn't even the price, for me it was just taking out he backseat, putting it back together.. it was a pain to torque down the 3 bolts on each side in the rear by the back speakers, whew!
