The front still needs to drop 1/2in and the back fenders need to be rolled.

Just some camera phone picts i took today. I'll get some decent photos this weekend.

Have not really had the chance to break them in yet. I just installed them last night and the alignment was so bad i couldnt drive it. I felt like i was in a mosh pit. The car was pulling in every direction lol. Aligned just the front this morning and was trying to get it done before work so its no where near perfect but the Toe and camber match which is good. I think they are around -2.4 in the front for both sides. The toe is almost perfect and the caster is all Fked up lol I'll get it squared away saturday. Then i'll hit up these back country roads i live around.
So far though they are real nice. I have the rear Dampers set pretty stiff because my fenders arent rolled and there is only 1/2in between the tire and the fender. That kinda sux because its real stiff in the back.... The front are about 4 clicks softer than the back.

idk what it is, but i think if you got bigger sized rims for the rear, it would look a whole lot better.

maybe its just me, but yeah idk.

EDIT: but the car looks sick man good work! :goodjob:

i'll b at the gwinnett meet tonight if anyone wants to bring a SLR... id like to get some shots w/ the HIDs too.

Spring rates .... 8kg Front and 10kg Rear

edit... they are quiet but i have the rear pretty stiff right now until i roll the fenders so they are a little loud/bouncy in the back. overall not so bad as of right now.... im sure once i get them broken in they might

Wow, that is stiff for that car. Should be VERY flat. Get used to them as they may grip amazing on sweepers but plow in very sharp turns if taken too hot because the front will resist flex. Harder in the rear is the way to go on FWD. Good luck with them.

looks nice. I used to ride around that low, but i like suspension travel, and not scraping over every speed bump
