Thanks again for the comments. The reason I decided to go with coils instead of just springs is because I'm at 60k miles, and if I just put springs it would be too much for my stock shocks after a while. Might as well do it right the first time.

No, I didn't have to roll the fenders, but I'm running a 275/35/19 tire in the rear; if you use a 285 you might have to roll them.

Danke (I'm so biting your look hahaha) its just too good!

Plus I'm alllllll the way in WA...so it doesn't even count as copycat'n ...yeaaaa distance logic, aka Shank-logic (it bends to suit my needs)
My offsets are +17 in the front and +24 in the rears, and with no spacers. I'm also running a 245/35/19 tire in the front and a 275/35/19 in the rear.

Nice one

thanks for the info, hard to tell what "flush" is with so many offsets flying around, based on your setup, some other are HELLA aggressive.

I think the aggressive set up's are sick, but I don't feel comfortable stretching my tires and slamming the car since it's my DD. This set up is not flush though, I'll post up some pictures to show how it looks up close.

I'll check it out on the SFL boards. BTW I saw your rims at HDM a few weeks ago, and they look sick.
