Here are a cpl more recent pics, you can see she dropped a bit more but not too much, which I like
I would not want the front lip any lower than it is here in this pic, any lower and I would have problems in my driveway... If it was just a show car and not my daily driver I might go lower but she has 54K miles on her and I love to drive her hard

Tire sizes are 255x35x19 and 275x35x19. I am running Toyo T1-R which I love, they are grippy and quiet on the road.
The Espelir's dropped the rear about an inch and the front about 3/4". I love the drop, allignment was no problem with these and the handeling couldn't be better!
Next up is a Greddy Grex Chromed BBK and I am Chroming the lips on the Volks as well

Did you need to install camber plates? I am worried about too much negative camber and premature tire wear.

Thanks andy. I try to help out where I can
I changed from the Greddy Grex to a Rotora set up... I have them on order and should be here in about 45 or so days... My wheels should be done by friday of this week... (I sent them in for the lips to be chromed, I was not satisfied with the anodized finish).
I will post pics when that is done... Here are a couple more pics from NOPI....
And these are the brakes I am going with VVV
Oh, and I almost forgot... I can't believe I didn't post these yet
Ahhhhhh... I love da' Car Shows
