yea but there are other tires with equal performance with less noise . Iv had fk452 and they were no where near the loudness of the kdw's . Well i know i will never buy BFG's thats for sure .

KDW's are awesome for the performance, but they get EXTREMELY loud. I've had two sets of them before switching to nitto neogens. These nittos are very quiet in comparison, but the problem with them and the Invo's is they can't be flipped to maximize their life. They're made for cambered cars with a thicker/stonger inner tread/sidewall, but I would rather be able to flip my tires and get a longer life out of them... Anyway, OP definitely get a drop on. You can get the basics if you're looking to go fairly low and have the adjustability to raise the car should you want. If you want lower I would suggest Stance or F&F 2's. If you're looking for minimal drop just go with Z h-tech springs.

Thanks for the advise . Im kind of on a budget and do want a minimal drop so i may go with the z htechs for now and get basics later on . As for nitto iv never been a fan but havent tried the invos .I hate anything by toyo so those are out of the question,rather have nankangs. My 2 favorite tires iv had before are the falken st115 azenis and michilin pilot sports so i may stick with them when i get new tires . Iv had dunlops before dont remember the model offhand ,maybe spsport or somthing but they were also great tires just dont have the grip compared to the other 2 i mentioned . Not bad though . The dunlops have the rim guard though which is nice imo . ANyone want to buy my kdw's for real cheap lol ?175?

Btw lets try to keep this thread about my new wheels and suspension advise now that we have the tires cleared up . What do you guys think about the offsets ? Where do you think they are at since iforged doesnt state offsets . Also not trying to go crazy like some people with negative camber . Not into the broken wheel and bald inner tire look
