Well i have an 2005 sxt and i want to lower it but right now if i lower it with the stock struts in a week i will seriously damage the front bumper too much because of the entrance to my house. I want to put on the srt-4 stock rims, but was wondering witch strut to use, to go with the stock srt struts, or with the SRT-4 ACR 05 tokico strut or witch wan do you guys recommend for daily drive and a good low look but not to low since im running right know some 18" spinout rims but planning to get the srt rims. Please help me

Periods are your friend.
Alot of people are running Tokico HP blues they are good for a 2'' drop. KYB GR2's are okay too. The SRT-4 ACR struts are hella expensive.
Check out ebay, I got my Tokico strut and spring package for $380 shipped. 1.5'' drop, looked good.

Well orangeblast05, I have been reading up on the previous threads about the struts and it seems to me that the forum members like the Tokico struts. I dont have the Tokico struts on my car but it seems to me from all the reading I have been doing on the struts that Tokico is the way to go, so getting Tokico struts should be FTW.

Does it need any modification to put the SRT-4 ACR tokiko ilumina setup in to the car. I was wondering with what springs should i combo it. I was thinking of the Mopar Stage 1 Springs.

careful with which struts you use...that will decide if your gonna run srt size tires, or neon size tires (fyi...the srt acr runs neon size tires)...
lots of folks go with tokico's. i have monroe sensatrac struts for the srt, which will allow me to run bigger tires once i swap...

I plan on running the stock srt-4 wheels with some 45 tires. I was thinking of having the stock SRT-4 ACR suspension setup. Wich are the tokiko ilumina gas shocks.
