New GT-7 RBC Question: Lower or no? (pics)

Just slapped on some new 19in Volk GT-7 RBC. Should I lower or not? If I did lower, I'd go TEIN CS Coilovers w/EDFC and either Stillen or Kinetix camber kit. On the other hand If I skipped the coilovers, I'd get exhaust and start saving for FI. Opinions?

I would say lower it. It'll give you a whole new look on the ride.

Re: New GT-7 RBC Question: Lower or no? (pics)

Is that a BS or DG colored coupe? What color are the Volks?

I've got a BS and I want something that's going to blend almost perfectly with the car color.

DG

The Volks are GT-7 RBC (Rays Black Metal Coat)

It's a black that is very shiny, almost chrome looking but not as bright. You can find a pic of them on the RAYS site under the Topic Board menu

I think it looks perfect. No need to lower it.

Just go for a subtle drop like the Tein H-Techs. Very happy with mine. Will only cost a few hundred.

Re: New GT-7 RBC Question: Lower or no? (pics)

id say it depends on what u want....of course it will look totally sick dropped....but to the non-car enthusiast, it would look sick already! my only concern would be clearance issues....(pending how low u go)
