I wonder people who don't modify cars think when they see it like that. LOL They probably think your stock suspension failed-- horribly. Those CXs will look so sweet on your ride.

I just bought a set of 19" AME CX's you may have seen just the other week in the wheels classifieds. I found a bangin deal on tires so I decided to keep the wheels and suffer the debt. I'm going to get the tires mounted on them in about 30 minutes and should have them on the car within a week or so.



Ya I'm on UAS with Bilstein struts. It slams man. The front isn't even all the way down. I just put my water bottles between my seat and the center console. It fits proper and thats usually all I drink. VIP table is a good thought tho.
what are you gonna do with the chrome stockies??

nice setup.....although i think everyone is failing to notice that he is on stock rims and no kit.....it looks like its slammed but the minute he puts 20s and kit on..it will look 10 times diff.... just an FYI car can only go so low.

I'm not putting 20s on... or a kit...

and I don't get what you're saying.. "it looks like its slammed but" without a set of 20s and a kit a car can't be slammed?

I've always thought it to be the other way around.. a car with a big kit gives the appearance that its slammed.. but its really not...

am I the only one ?

maybe im just used to seeing the GS at that level no matter what air suspension it is.....but when you use stock wheels....the rears always look like they are sucked into the wheel well more dramatically......and they should....since their small.......

i dont mean to offend....but maybe the "wow" factor is gone with me.....

as far as the wheels go....depending on what setup....u might end up laying on the wheel itself....barely tucking the lips.....at that point...its good to have a kit that is lower to the ground giving the look that ur suspension is going a lot lower then it really is.
