Thanks for the compliments guys. A proper lowering and a BBK are on the list, but I'm a bit tight on money right now. The wheels were an offer I could not refuse, $480 with 45% tread remaining on the Bridgestones. I'll get the centercaps taken care of, currently looking through a few DIY's.

As for the fogs, I'm pretty sure they're stock but the previous owner could have done something funky to it.

Do you rub with 245/45? I had to take mine 350z rims because it rubbed with stock suspension.

I'm dropped on tanabe springs and I didn't rub with the oem tires. Then I got 255/40's and I rubbed a little on the drivers side so I rolled the fenders.

lol I'm trying to find a good deal on some coilovers so I can drop it a little bit more. Maybe half an inch to an inch.

They're glued on pretty tight, and there doesn't seem to be any tabs in the back.

Well the centercaps will come off, but the logo is stamped into the cap, so you would need to get some new ones. They're all over ebay for like 40 shipped.
