What is needed with ST coilovers?
 
Okay so I'm about to pull the trigger on ST Coilovers, but now I'm curious to know what is needed before installing them? I've read end links or camber plates and got a little confused as to what else I need before putting them in. I don't plan on tracking the car ever mainly just for daily driving.

You wont need either of those for daily driving.
However, you may need spacers depending on how low you go. The stock wheels WILL hit the front spring perch if you go past a certain point.

you will for sure need rear adj control arms as you will gain camber in the rear as you lower it.
you can add front camber plates as they will allow you to dial in the camber just right, but not necessary for the street. If you want to do that you would be best to just go with the STX version as they include camber plates

Also we have a few other options on coilovers that could work for you depending on your budget and final needs. Just email and ask.

ST coil overs are great, you'll love them! Look into the Hotchkis Adjustable Control Arms and also I'd highly suggestion replacing your front and rear top mounts, if you do not plan to do camber plates, since you will have them out already. Rear here and front here.

On the ST Coilovers +1 Spacers is you go much lower. There is the ST X and the ST XTA. The STXTA have front camber plates. Both are free ship. A rear camber arm kit for adjustment if you go low also.
