Looks great. The top of my Tokico's don't stick up like that, seems strange.

Are you running a Richie's V1 or V2? Oh, and looks so much better with the new stance!!

V1 I guess. I think the V2 is polished.

Thanks. I'm glad I waited for the Konis. The handling is great.

Front still sits a bit higher than the rear, hopefully it settles a bit, but you can always add a spacer on top of the rear springmount to even it up better. Looks great compared to that 4x4 monstrosity on the first page

I "think" it looks like that because the 245-40-19 is 1.5% bigger than stock and the 225-40-19 is a touch smaller than stock.

Good point, what are you going to run next time around on tires?

Ideally 235-40-19s all around. But I might bid on some ps2s in all 245-40-19s. the slightly larger size doesn't excite me acceleration-wise but I don't know if that's the reason or because the re050s weigh like 27 frickin' lbs each!

Thanks Swivel.

Update: Not that anyone really uses Konis + the richie bar but I took a thick screwdriver and bent the richie strut bar brackets where they cross the threaded Koni strut stud. Simple thing and doesn't affect the ability to get at the strut bolts

how much negative camber are you running.

I have a feeling I may have an issue with the rear 255s. The kumhos look a bit wider than most 255s (5mm or so)

My rear lips are rolled flat, I have a 35 series tire....I wonder with 1/2" rear drop if I would rub...I guess this is where you run negative camber

I went with this size b/c klub head and gixxersteve have this size tire on the rear with no issues

I'll try and post pics soon.
