I would consider a drop to give it that aggressive stance. Cool, you wife knows.

the only way i would drop it would be coilovers, about 4"s. She's not kidding about low, but as i said its my dd, to drive to work, which is literally like 3 miles away (been there almost 12 years). In about 2 months i will be buying another car, not sure what yet...but im thinking another corvette.

you know how often I hear "I am just changing the wheels," and six months later they have at least 50% more hp than stock?
