Exact same combo for me. Just watch those rear tires if you haven't already rolled the rear fenders. I don't know if your wheels are out far enough to catch the fender lip, but mine hit them immediately. Once rolled, no problems though.
Here is mine on the same setup. I found them to be quite a bit stiffer than stock though. Maybe mine were just that shot
Not meaning to hijack, just want others to see how this setup looks other wheels and a little different perspective

Troy, very nice set-up. I want to do the same on my 98SC300. Could we have the complete info on the type/size of wheels and the brand size of tires front/back. Name/part # of springs and shocks? Any spacers? Any rolling of fenders? SC300 or 400?

yea what size tires are you guys using because I'm running 18x10.5 rear and 18x9.5 front.. I already have to roll my fender with stock suspension. Do you think this setup will work with my tires/rims?
Also, Troy what kind of rims are those I LOVE them?????? (our car is the same color so that's exactly what my car would look like haha nice)

Mine have MAYBE 500 miles on them. I've had them about 6 months on there, but I've driven the car maybe 500 miles in that time, so they may not have settled completely yet. In the past, springs I've had took about 1000-2000 miles before they fully settled so that may be right. It does sit a little lower even now looking at it in the garage.
The wheels I have are 18x8.5 and 18x9.5. 245/40 on the front and 275/35 on the back. I don't remember the exact offset, but I think its +35 all around. With slight rolling in the rear, it doesn't rub on anything or scrape anywhere.
