Tein Basics Installed; Pics

What's up guys. Just figured I'd post up a few pics of my car after i dropped it on tein basic coilovers. I just snapped a few i'll post up some better pics later. The install was pretty easy to do.....I recommend doing this yourself before paying anybody cause it's really easy to do. The ride quality actually turned out very nice and I'm very happy with my purchase. I think I'm going to adjust the coilovers and maybe drop it down alittle more in the back and maybe the front. here are the pics:

This is before the drop at factory height:



And this is after the drop:






Comments suggestions please? I'm thinking about some wheel spacers but not sure about the size to go with. I have 245/35/19x8.5" +20 Offset on the fronts and 285/35/19x9.5" +25 Offset on the rears, if you guys could help me on spacers size maybe.....I have my fenders rolled as well so I dont have to worry about that.

Looks great. That's the beauty of the coilovers, you can adjust until you're happy.

Yeah I'm gonna go lower, I'm going to adjust them later today cause I gotta work on the ride. If I drop it alittle bit more will I need to go for another ALIGNMENT? I just had one but dont know if droping it slightly alittle more will throw the thing off again, help?

I think it's maybe around 1" drop in the back and I would say 1 1/4" in the front or so. Def gonna go lower now though....just need to see if i will need another alignment if i drop it some more.
