looks great! couple of questions:

1) what size wheels are those?
2) what drop do you have... 2 inches or more?

Thanks!

You desperately need rear spacers.

Pictures in the sunlight actually look better than shade pics.

The wheels are 15's and the drop is s techs with a coil and a half cut off. The spacers are ordered, i am waiting on the "brown truck" to drop them off.

wow, you cut a coil off... how has that affected the ride?

my reason for asking, is i want to go back to a 15" wheel but do not want to gain the awful wheel gap back. i am on eibach sportlines with koni adjustable on all four corners.

your ride look really nice and with 15's and hardly any gap is making me seriously consider going back to 15s.

again, it looks great! thanks for the info.

it actually doesn't ride any different. if you are worried about the ride, swap your struts out for echo struts and they give ya about another inch of drop!

What? the hacked up perfectly good $200+ springs. Talk about wasting money. Stock springs are a dime a dozen.
