Its about 1.3 inches, in the front, and just over 1" in the rear,,,, the thing that plays on ya is the wheel arches are not cut the same,,, front is 1/2" higher,, but when you set the car on a level driveway, or road, my car is DEAD even along the rocker panel. or from behind the front wheel, to the front of the rear wheel....

LOL... my neighbors aren't cool enough to have even empty Eibach boxes in their trash cans.
There is an FX across the street, but that guy's not very social.

I have a few local friends offering to help me out... just got to set up a time.
If we can't sort things out, I may enlist a local shop, but I hate the idea of dropping $250-$300 just to install springs.
I'd rather hang with friends and fill their guts with lobsters and beer, ya know?

We'll see, but I'm guessing within the next week or two.

Lol yeah I know about his plans for 20's. But he's thinking of holding out to possibly get the Impul springs, I'm telling him to just go with Eibach's cause they'll give the 20's a better look.

LOL like I said, I'm a poor man, I can't afford wheels so easily like you...you baller...

On a side note, I may be temporarily getting a set of G37s 19's soon to hold me out till I get the DPE's.

Let's look at it this way... If we're on Eibachs and he's on Impuls.. we can continue to tell him "Drop that b!tch!" since he's still higher than us

Is that right eh? my thoughts are.. if your gonna get new shoes.. might as well do it right the first time. Sounds familiar?

A smart man told me that sometime ago before I got the M45's...hint hint. His name starts with a B..

Lol I'm just joking around with him, I have plans for DPE's with a nice aggressive/flush fitment. I may only get the G37s wheels for the time being cause I'm going to have to replace my tires soon. Figured I'd get a whole new set of wheels with tires for not too much more so why not.

Hahahaha using my own advice against me...touche!

But read my reply to Scott, If I do get the G37 wheels, it'll be to hold me out till the DPE's are ordered. My tires are going to need to be replaced soon, and I figured a new set of Bridgestones are going to cost me around $800. I could get a set of G37 wheels for $1500 at the most with almost new tires, so why not change it up a bit...

Think of the G37 wheels as a set of spares in my case, cause I'm definitely ordering up the DPE's. I need aggressive wheels
