Default 2005 SSM's Life, currently sitting on rotiforms

Whats up guys!!!!
Here is my official thread!


First off i thought i would do some small things to my car.
-Got some LED lights under the dash
-Also some LED's for my dome lights
-Racing Pedals
-Eyelids
-Shift **** + Boot

Second i decided some more peformance:
-Picked up a set of Tein H-Techs
-TRD Axleback
-TWM Performace Short Throw Shifter

Than i figured my drop wasnt low enough for me so i bought some coilovers, and my first ever coilover set.
-Raceland Coilovers

After i rode on my new coils for about 4000 miles i found the PERFECT set of wheels...never seen a tC with them, and it was a steal price i had to take.
-Rotiform BLQ's 17x8.5 et 15
-Wrapped in Yokohama s.drives (205/40/17)

Went from this:

Nice rotiforms. Needs to go lower and I'm not saying that just to be a douche or fanboy, but to pull off those wheels you just need to be lower.
Remove the towhook and you have a simple, clean car. Nice work!

Also, it looks like one side is higher than the other...

I know your not trying to be a douche, i tell myself the same thing, trying to save up for B&Gs.....already cut my bumpstops and they STILL arent low enough, than i thuoght trading in my wheels and tires for the same wheels but in 18s......and yes. the pass. side is higher, even when i put my drivers side 3-4 threads higher....i just said F it and just let the side i see most sit lower. =\ im guessing its someting to do with the tranny and me always sitting there, mabye settled more? Or just a fail on raceland Also, i like the tow hook, when you look directly at the side of my car you see the blue calipers and the tow hook and i think it looks sick, but thanks for the constructive criticism and not hatin xD

I like the wheels, but I feel like there should be more rubber on there. The 205's look really small to me. I know alot of people run that size though, maybe is just the wheels. Overall, I like (minus the hook).

I now these can go lower cause I believe uyles & bum(maybe) are rocking raceland and there low on 18's and then there's Sam and he's on bbs and he's slammed check out the last page of the aggressive thread or the page bfo and there's also a couple guys that are on raceland that are pretty slammed just look around and maybe ask them how they did it
