dam thats a nice ride. ya the wheel looks like its got some gonahrea or somtin, i hear it easy enough to clear up. im likin the chrome rims, how big, 17ish? i like the trunk lid also, howd u do that?
CamrySpeaksJL: I used Dynomat extreme kit it was expensive but well worth it.
Fresco Bob: Yup they're 17's but im in the market for some 18/19 deep dish rims.Its just of matter of which ones catch my eye.As for the trunk the shop shaved off the little light pieces and added a metal sheet over it and painted it.
When you lowered your car, did you lower the back LESS than the front because of your subs ? I am gonna lower mine this summer and was curious to see what people say.. thanks
96camrySt4: I lowered my car with Eibach springs and Tokico struts.The back of the car is just lower because of all the things i have in my trunk such as 2 12's,2 amps,and stinger battery.I wanted a lower drop but im satisfied with this for now until i get the camry airbagged. Do not cut off any coil from any spring regardless of what people say.

I am going to do the same thing with my car, tokico struts and eibach springs.... i like how your car looks, very clean, but not too low...
I use my car as a daily driver in New England, and probably wouldn't want to drop my car lower than 1.5". The eibach's drop about 1.25"... what size rims do u have, 17" or 18"?
I have 17" motegi mr7's, and the other thing I was concerned about was the fender gap being too big for what I wanted it to be.
the rims are 17's with 205/40/17 tires.I say the gap in the front is about 4 fingers and the rear is 2.I personally dont like to drive to low in Las Vegas because of all the construction that goes on around here.The ride is still very smooth almost like stock.

Your tires are too small, tires that size for 17s are for cars like civics. You need bigger tires something like 215/45/17, 215/45/17, or 235/45/17. Here use the link below to compare what tire size you should have.
