no where near, when I first put the coilovers on I had the whole tire tucked... the exhaust flanges were sitting on the floor. waaaay to low for stocks, lol.

These coils have at least 2" more to go before being max'd out.

yea, i have a sickness.... I cant have a stock car. At minimum, it has to be lowered (coilovers only way to go IMO) and on wheels. In a little I plan to get TTE front lip and a few other things for now... before adding BOOOOST

Looks nice, but I still think you should go lower.

oh I will.... its still to high for me. Once the wheels get here (20") I will re-adjust and set it to be what I hope is an 1.5 lower that it is now.

looks great man, make sure you get an alignment lol.. Just picked up my GGP Sport design a couple months ago and the guy took off his coilovers and put lowering springs on with factory GS400 17's and new tires, well i never had it aligned afterwards (rode fine) i figured maybe he had it aligned before i bought it, anyways to make a long story short, the toe was so bad it ended up eating the inside of the tires before i noticed, took less the 3,000 miles and now i'm buying new tires and getting an alignment next week..

Thanks for the heads up. I dont drive more than 18 miles round trip to and from work. SO im going to wait for alignment (as much as possible of course) until the new shoes get here end of the month..
