Nice, looks great!

 

I'm jealous...

 

Too bad you can't drop the X, not that theres any reason to up here in Canada.. .. You would just get stuck in the snow! Thats why ours has the original ugly 17's on it.. however when I get the car when I'm 17, I'm gettin some 19's or 20's for the summer.... and I've already started saving for them lol

 

IMO I think it's a tad too low for the stock wheels/tires.

It would be interesting to see that badboy with some new shoes.

 

Coming from a lowered car, I still take bumps and dips really slowly even though I don't have to now

 

Looks good, definitely better then stock, however It does look a tad bit too low, I would raise it up a tiny bit, the front looks much better then the back because the wheel is inside the wheel well on the back after lowering and that disrupts the cleanliness of the car. raising the back is the way to go, front looks spot on.

Is that going to be the only size they make? I've thought about this but if that's lowering it 31/33mm, I would like it at 20/20mm around the whole car.

 

looks excellent. like others have stated, i think it would look better if u raised the back up a little tad more to even it out. and then your good to go btw where did u get the springs from? online?

 

I was at Eibach ... they gave me the springs as part of R&D.

 

True the back is lower, but I think the amount is slightly distorted by the angle the pictures were taken at. If there is a way for me to post the high resolution picture in front of the fence, you can see the rear tire actually meets the fender prefectly without tucking under.

 

I think the rear looks a little low, I would bump it up to match the front too. I think its a little too much drop if its beginning to tuck the stock 18s into the fender well a touch... That of course is just my opinion.

Is that more or less drop than I should expect from the H&R Kit? If its going to be that much/more, I may have to check it out with the wheels before lowering it.

 

Just curious, how early did you contact them about the springs? Did you have to let them to R&D w/ your car?

 

DAMN!! That Looks Sweet! Same color as Mine, Can't wait till they come out with the productuon version of these Springs! Thank's for the Pics Terrycs

 

looks great man! It actually looks amazing!

H&R lists their springs as lowering 1.3" front and 1.2" rear.

Terrycs says the springs he got lowers 31mm (1.22") front and 33mm (1.3") rear.

So the H&R springs should be a touch lower in the front and not quite as low in the rear.

I'll have the H&R springs on mine Thursday. I'm predicting I'll rub like a bitch on the back without some major neg. camber with my +40 rear offsets but my 40+ rears will be hear on the 15th so I can live with it like that for a few weeks.

 

OK, I thoght I would post up some cropped and zoomed pics of the back for those interested.

Like a couple of you, I'm kinda wondering if raising the back up a little so the fender gap matches the front would be good because then I may not need to go with a camber kit. But then again, If I got the camber kit, would the gap then match the front? And also, how much of an effect does the full tank of gas contribute? Feel free to comment!
