... a lot? Just kidding, not sure exactly how low but it's on HKS RS all the way down, perfect for everyday driving in Southern California. Originally Posted by SSgfunk

Too bad the car is stock now.

Thanks! I still have to lower it and after taking a ride in another G with Tein Basics, that is what I have decided on.
The wheels are def very strong! I hit the same pothole on the parkway twice (yeah I cringed like a biotch) but the rim came out unscathed both times!
I love these wheels, but they suck to keep clean!! Project Mu pads will be coming shortly! Keep in mind that when you dry these wheels, it is much easier with a leaf blower or compressor, or even a vacuum set to blow. These wheels hold huge **** puddles!!!

thanks guys...
I run a shop, and have an account with Work, so my cost is a bit "optimistic"
They are +29 all around which gives a 100mm rear lip and 87mm front lip... BUT this size has some caveats - a) they require a very, very thin spacer (3mm) to clear the front brakes (and mine are even '05 brakes, they'd never clear brembos) and in the rear, it will require cutting the fender a bit to clear the tire with this low of a drop...
Definitely worth it in my opinion, but understandably too extreme (in terms of mods needed) for a lot of people's tastes...
