u need bigger wheels. lol, what are those 17"s?!!!

I was wondering why the drop didn't look so low. After looking at my friend's car with 20s and the same springs on his GS, yours looked high. His is actually tucking the rear tires, or right on it.

Tanabe drops are great. Looking good. I kind of wish the GS had a lower stance from the factory.

Hey Saf....Drop looks clean...How's the roof application holding up? Looks cool tying the roof with your 2-tone interior. Did you install the side markers?
