Coilover Suspension

I have a 05 WRX Wagon and I want to get rid of some wheel well with some suspension work. I'm not going to race the car, but I am concerned about finding a set of lower springs that I will not bottom out I'm Looking at Coilover Suspension sets. This is the only way I can see to get around this problem. I would rather put the $$$$ into other things on the car. (Breaks & ECU) Any suggestions?

If you only want springs, just go with Ground Controls. I use them on my WRX and they're a coilsleeve which allows you to adjust the ride height, yet not have to put out a few grand for them.

with the ground controls, youll blow out your shocks faster. you might want to invest in some shocks too. groun controls and shocks pretty much equal a set of coilovers, like the helix dnas. IMO, better off getting coilovers so you get the added benefits of a coilover system
