Hey didnt think to ask... Are you running spacers? Or is it your offset that is making the rims stick further out? If its just the offset.... then man thats screaming for some bags!!!

yeah dude, I don't use spacers! haha

Nah, no bags for me but after I make room up front for the UCA ball joints, it'll go about an inch lower. SLAMMED ALL DAY.

That was before the fenders got trimmed. It doesn't do that now.

Who daily drives on coils lower than this? How much lower?

I'm thinking about a 1/2" should do the trick.

From what I can see the car looks great. I dont think you need spacers but I would lower it a bit more and that will give you a little more neg. camber as well.

I think its a good stance but the spokes on ur rims are set back far into the rim which makes it look a little off, good job tho. Is this a rare black/black gs or is it actually that dark dark green that ive got?
