Thx man. Yup saw them on here and got them from wheel dynamics. I think the pictures don't really capture as good as they look on the car...so more photos later.

Nice car! The before pics are like a carbon copy of my car. Don't have the cool turbo tips though.

Welcome!

I was already thinking about lowering. I don't like how the wheel has some area above the tires. How much is it to lower with PSS9s or X74s with someone else doing it? Does it make her a bumpier ride after?

Beautiful car. Are you planning to sell the original rims? I would be interested.

Love the rims. Now I know exactly how my car would look with those rims on. I need to go talk to my accountant (wife).

I say cut your springs in half and it will be slamming...JK

x74 is a firm ride (not harsh!) but still provides a comfortable experience even on a long haul. PSS9 is also a good option and you can adjust it (x74 is not adjustable but I have it and like it...and it cost less than the PSS9 system). So with the PSS9 you can adjust the height to allow for ride quality and still provide better handling, however be ready to get an alignment when you do adjust the suspension.
