I finally had everything put on. Took about five months since I took delivery of the car. They are 19 inch brushed aluminum flux wrapped in falken grb fk-451 (very good tire-no complaints yet), and hks ls+. I'm waiting for the coilovers to settle before I drop it more, but for now its dropped at factory settings. Its rubbing a blakc plastic covering panel inside the wheel well and i'm wondering if its okay to take it off. It only does this over huge bumps on the road. The ride quality is close to factory, but road noise is somewhat more amplified.

nice job man it looks awesome! your car is lowered right?

 

My car is lowered 1.25 in rear and 1 in front, which are the settings on the suspension out of the box. Thanks for the comment.

 

Nice Rims - really lovin the rear lip.

BTW, I am currently in the market for new tires - how much did you pay and where did you get them.

JWT Pop-Charger/Z Tube*Clear Corners*20% Tint
6-Wire HyperGrounding Kit
Iforged Evo's on order (7 Weeks Down - ? To Go)
OEM Chin Spoiler

 

your car looks great!!

i have the same coilovers with 20" iforged wheels, and i don't get any rubbing at all. perhaps an alignment will solve this for you?

also, i had to soften my coilovers, because the factory damping was way too stiff.

 

I purchased the tires from discount tire direct for 976 including shipping which was free. 245/285/35.

 

I just looked at your car protocav. That is even sicker than my car. Do you have any trouble driving with 20's in SD? Is that picture in your profile with the ls+ dropped?

 

looks good. just keep them clean

 

They are actually pretty hard to keep clean since its been raining in Boston every other day lately. Damen - What did you used to clean your rims anyways?
