Post Finally, New Rims and a Drop!!!

Well, after a small wait, here it is. I put on a german suspension setup with suspension technology springs and bilstein struts, the drop was 1.4". I threw on some 18" SM's with a 3.25" lip, i like the way it turned out, let me know what you think, i am going to de-badge her tomorrow morning. thanks

Looks good. I don't like Sportmax wheels but they look nice on your ES.

It's respectable.
How many millimetres is the lowest point of your car off the ground??
Or how high off the ground are your front and rear bumpers?

Cheers.
