Finally did my Springs, Exhaust and Wheels today

I figured I would post some pictures. I just got finished an hour ago so of course its dark out. If you have nothing nice to say just keep it to yourself. I love the way it turned out.

Yes HKS. I like the way it sounds. Its very deep. I would also like to add how impressed with the fit and finish I was after installing the HKS exhaust. its worth the extra money to get a quality well fitting exhaust.

20x9 in front with 255/30/20 tires. 20x10 rear with 285/30/20 tires. over big bumps it does rub in the front and rear. There is a lot of material in the rear fender for the shop to remove to clearance the tire. The front I am just going to have to deal with. Unless you know something I dont about alleviating rubbing in the front of these cars.

Not sure how you turn, but plenty of guys here run more aggressive fitments and drops and still turn just fine. I'm not the most aggressive (considering my -3 camber sinks me in), but at 19x9.5 +2 255/35 with a lower drop than you, I'm fine.

When i take it in for an alignment I am going to do more aggressive negative camber in the front. Sounds like that will help a lot. Thanks for the info. would you suggest -3 for my setup? also I am wondering how your tire wear is in the front with that kind of camber.
