I think the kit looks much better that I thought it would. I was weary because the price was so low but it looks solid. I think te side skirts are a touch juicy but still not bad

I keep looking at these pics. Magazine photoshoot quality....minus the girl. She's not doing much to enhance the pics imo.

255....is too big IMO.....I would get some spacers...and run 235/35 in the rear.....give a little stretch look to it.........a better "stance"

looks solid with a Falken tire because they run about qtr in ch to 3/8ths narrower than most tires. I have gotten the same response from another member but the truth is it works with a slight increase in the ride height. The ride height increase will only give me more mileage from the tires and less frequent visits to the wheel and tire shop

I am probably going to stick with the Faalken FK452 or try the Nitto INVO. The only thing is I have been told by a few tire guys that the INVO has a softer sidewall so the ride is nicer but the handling and tire wear will be a touch less desirable than the FK452
