Yes, they're John's old wheels. I had them refinished, and pretty much came out like new.

I replaced my TEIN Basics with BC Racing BR Series coils. 12k spring rates all around.

I wanted to ask about the BCs, they look just like B&Gs so I assume they have a lot of room to slam?

My friend whom installed the coils for me said they look just like B&Gs, except that BCs have pillowball/upper mounts and camber plates.

I got the "extreme low kit," and mine aren't settled yet, but I have about half an inch (or less) to go.
I'm sure if you compress the spring even more on the pre-load, you can go lower. Or take the perch rings off, which I heard people do.

Yeah, definitely. I compressed spring to get more low on B&Gs, but I might actually switch to the BC just for the camber plates.

Those camber plates really helped me for the front.

I was having a hard time finding proper bolts, but with the BCs, I am now -2.1 degrees cambered in the front. Before I was barely pushing -1.

Work VS-XX Dark Gold - 18x10 +26 Front w/ 3 1/2" lip, +20 Rear w/ 4" lip. I'm not sure of the disk types, but the rear face sits flatter.
