If he wants, iFORGED, you should direct him to the group buy currently being conducted on this forum (link in my sig).

Then he can be another satisfied customer, just like Darius! LOL

Thanks for the compliment!

Haha - Yes that WAS me! You were wearing a black shirt and black pants, right?

I was looking at your car before mine was lowered and thinking "Hmmm....Maybe 19s are too small??"

Nice GS, a 430 right? You did a great job keeping it nice and clean!. If you're at EOS I'll see you there!

Right now I'm using the stock shocks/struts and will be for a while....until I start to feel it or another 25-40K miles.

The Espelir springs can go as low as 70mm (2.75) but mine are 55mm(2.16) front and 30mm(1.18) rear. I don't expect them to get that low for another 6 months or so. You can find more info at Mackin Industries site (http://www.mackinindustries.com/espelir_spring.html) or, if you can read Japanese, the Espelir site (www.espelir.co.jp). I love the way it drops the nose of the car .....especially when combined with 10" tires in the rear

I did but he needs to save up so it'll be awhile before he's ready to buy.

Heh, you got good memory. I don't even remember what I wore that day. I think my 19s look small because I got the "fat setup." I actually like it much better than the normal setup since the roads around here aren't that great and tire wear is fairly even all around.

It's a GS400 with 430 tail lights.

Ohhhh that's why they looked bigger than mine, the fat setup.

I though you had 20s. It's looked so GOOD I thought, maybe MY 19s are too small .
