Talking IForged Sprint 19in.

Just order my IForged Sprint wheels from WHEELS BOUTIQUE. Joe was very helpful on what route to go with for my set up. This is where i stand for about a 1.5 drop!!!

19x8.5+35(FRONT) 245/35/19
19x9.5+42(REAR) 275/30/19
The rear will have about a 3.5 in lip, real aggresive look, and the front about 2in. lip.
Im debating to what to go with for lowering the car. COILOVERS or SRINGS and SHOCKS!!!! I understand the cocept between the two, but was just wondering if coilovers are worth the extra money.

A 3.5" lip in the rear, nice!

Did they mention whether or not you'll need to cut off the axle stub so it's flush with the axle nut?
A 3.0" lip is already a stretch on these cars w/ that kind if rear offset.

They don't need to because the centers don't dip in so much...so they have some extra room behind the centercap (compared to the 540's at least)


shaneheber - Coilovers, no question about it!

I purchase the three piece. The hardest part about this is waiting for them to make it. Joe told me that they are about 4-6 weeks behind.

SO Manaray if there is any pull for getting them sooner, i guess you would be the one who can help!!!!!LOLOL, thanks man let me know what you think........
