Rims & Lowered! [NO 56K]

Finally! After such a long time, it's finally here.

The setup:
Monroe Shocks
KSport Springs
17" Rims
215/45/17 tires

Since I'm the first one with the KSport springs on the Gen 3 a quick review: I love them. The drop is nice (though I wanted a bit more drop on the front), the handling is great and it doesn't bounce AT ALL).

Also new on the car, the rear center panel, I just got the black one, and tinted the reverse lights too.

The pictures:




Front: It's actually about a 2 finger gap with a little more, the third finger isn't in there


Rear: A finger and a bit more, not enough to get the second finger in there

I don't find them rough at all, with the shitty roads we have I find them to perform very well. Then again, I was running on blown struts for a while, maybe I just got used to that.

looks good

and as everybody else says- it'll settle on hte front for sure

but better sized tires would have helped with the gap too
