Default DF210's and Monroes all-round.... ***PIX***

I WARN YOU GUYS AHEAD OF TIME, I USED MY CAMERA PHONE, AND THE LIGHTING REALLY SUCKED..... BUT HERE ARE SOME PIX:

Tanabe DF210's with Monroe Shocks and struts...... ride is a lot firmer yet smoother.... a little on the bouncy side depending on the road..... but overall great, i also have the DC front strut bar, and i can feel a pretty good difference in the front steering and response.

JUST HIGH ENOUGH TO CLEAR A PARKING BLOCK OR 3/4 A 20oz bottle



FRONT WHEEL GAP



REAR WHEEL GAP


[b]OVERALL[b/]


tonight i'm installing projector headlights with 6k HID's, and a bsp main grille. I'll post pics in aero& exterior when im done...

Just a small piece of advice...

Don't count on clearing parking blocks. My wife's xB is dropped on DF210s and we always steer clear of them. I have seen more than a few that were higher than the bottom of the lip. Most by enough to do some serious damage.

The nice thing is that the xB is short enough that you could be a foot away from the parking block (or curb) and still be well within the parking space.

Stock black grille with the bB emblem and you're straight... Nice looking ride.

looks good. What size wheels are those?
edit: Theyre 17" Speedy Race Modes. Nice. I have a set of Speedys that I run in the winter.
