i like how it looks on the car now, but with a spacer in the rear it might look real mean. here are pics of the rear for now...

unfortunately it hasnt stopped raining here so i can't even get a decent pic of the car clean. probably should wait for all 4 rims for that anyway

yeah it was lowered 1 inch on the stock rims and looked good, but when i put the rims on it obviously went up a little, i have to get new springs.

think it needs about 2 inch springs?

Maybe you should go with a lower profile tire, also...

rubber bands... weak. stick with 45 or 50 series tires on 17" if anything lower profile tires make it higher (larger fender gap)

yea...coilovers sound like a good idea...cmon..get the spacer u kno u want them...besides lowering it more will give it more negative camber...that way u can be low AND flush...looks good btw

^ werd... looks like it's a tire size problem - is the actual wheel hitting, or just the tire?

its just above the rim on the tire, i think that picture might be a little deceiving, it was hard to take the pic and push the wheel all the way in at the same time.

i get the spacers tomorrow and i should have all the wheels on tomorrow. universal spacers, 10 bucks a piece for 10 mm. ill post pics.

coilovers are not in my budget, you guys got any suggestions on what springs and where to get them?
