I never had tanabe but this is the perfect drop for this car based off what I am seeing. it rides awesome!!! just like stock, the spacers tightened up steering just a bit.

Wanted to update everyone. I got the spacers installed. 20mm in the front and 25mm in the rear. The stance looks awesome. Stock Dunlops only made it to 13k. Thank god I lowered the car because I never noticed the wear on the rear tires. Ended up getting new tires on and realigned. Camber is still off, waiting for a camber kit to be released. The look of the drop is awesome and helps me forget about the camber. The alignment helped put the toe back in spec, which really will eat tires up.

Be careful with those spacer. Your "sticking-out" wheels will sandblast the crap out of the bottoms of the front doors and the rear bumper right behind rear wheels.

it is worth the look! No different then running bigger aftermarket wheels, always a trade off for sure!

That wear is in sane. Was it the staggered set up or your driving skills? Mine is a little over 16K but still has some good 2-3mm.

I have been hard on the car, that's not lie. The tread wearing is 280, also can't rotate

Although it is slightly off, the tire wear looks pretty even.

Nice pick on the spacers. I like how the tires set flush to the fenders

nice setup i love the fact that you just kept it for the most part stock but looked way more aggressive. what type of spacers are those?
