What you need depends on how low you plan to go.

Keep in mind, whatever you install you're going to need an alignment afterwards.

*edit* You're answer is in your other thread....

I see.... I mean I dont want too low just till where there is no gap in between the tires and the fenders...

I need specs on that and the things I need...
I dont want to have problems again -_____-

The quickest way to get rid of fender gap would be to up wheel size to like 16 or 17 inch. Then to get low and keep the car level you could go with coilovers. That's probally tue most direct way to get rid of fender gap because you can adjust the ride height with them. To get the wheel tuck (like the stance works guys) you'll need to roll you fenders and drop quite low.

coilovers, shocks, struts, wheel spacers, lowering springs
