I am sure you will be fine with any rubbing issues but looks wise you will have a pretty significant gap on stock suspension. I dont think it would be 4x4 status but im sure all the critics here on CL would agree for you to lower the car GL
I do plan to lower it! For sure!

Also, I know about the raised caps, but the flat caps just look sexier IMO. Makes the wheel look much nicer.

I am usually the only one in the car, or just one passenger. But for the rare times that I do roll with 4 passengers... is the rubbing just rediculous? Or is it just minor. Possible to roll the rears?

Sweeet! Thats my SGM in those pics. I recently got my chrome trim blacked out (SHOUT OUT TO DEXTER!) and i blacked out the chrome bezel up front... In the process of blacking all the emblems out as well. I LOVE the look of black and SGM together. It loooks so MEAAAN! IMO get the satin black 818's


Sorry for the poor quality.. camera phone Waitin to do a shoot in the city.

[QUOTE=Dexterr;5496965]Nice touch. Post the pics bro!

I mentioned to Zoeb LC should produce the 818s in "Advan Gun Metal" and "Advan Gold" colors as well. I think those colors will be great addition to the 818 line up. Just NO TIME ATTACK PIN STRIPES PLEASE!![QUOTE]

+1 for "Advan Gun Metal"

Two more pics from our midnight photoshoot. I think the second pic captured a good shot of the concave.

LexHes....Man...that looks sick. What kind of suspension do u have? The reason I ask is cause I want to drop mine but not too low. Its a daily driver, plus I got kids Don't want to be rubbing too much. Thanks
