^ Thanks bro, best I can do right now. Not bad for a total of about $600 invested.
I've got Injected working with me right now soon as I get the chance, I'm gonna do some real work.

First, car looks sharp. I like the silver accents you've left on it (wheel caps, lugs, headlights, Mt. Fuji). I'm normally not a fan of black wheels, but these look good.

Second, on spacers, measure first and do some research, 25 seems like a lot (just over 1"). Even O HELLA's not sure, but don't guess at it. If you don't know how, put a level against the outside edge of the wheel well and measure horizontally from the level to the to the closest point on the tire. If we use this pic, you'd probably measure to the point just past the 2 lines after the word Nankang. This measurement will get you a flush look if you don't drop it. If you do drop more than an inch or so, other things come into play.

Third, Nankang? Are those any good? I'm skeptical of a tire that's usually priced less than half of what a known good tire goes for. There are some cheap, I mean inexpensive, tires out there, but Nankang is usually the cheapest, I mean least expensive.

Thanks man, I will do the measurement. The Nankangs were on it when I got it in Feb. so I don't reallt know how long they have been on it, or how many miles. What I do know is they are pretty good in the rain. The G isn't my dd, but I did get have to drive back from leave in the rain and it held really good. As for hard driving I don't know I don't beat on it. I like them probably gonna go with some Toyo's or Nitto's when I need new ones. Maybe even the KDW's not really sure just yet.

25mm is not a lot. Many people run that size w/ oem 19's. Even w/ 25mm it's still not totally flushed..

^ Thanks man, well I'm up in the air about it. If I do it I'd really like to do coils, but who has like $1400 lying around? If I did I'd have my GReddy exhaust, not coils. lol
I might just do some Tein S-Tech springs.
