Do you end up chewing up the fenders or quaters?

I'm curious on the switch from KW's to the H&R's. Do they offer higher spring rates and valving so that you don't bottom out?

Overall I'm a fan. Love the way you made everything work, and the fact that you took it to the 'Ring is epic on many accounts.
Nope no rubbing. To get my car as low as it was on KW I had to remove the helper spring, cut bump stops, etc. While it was low it was basically on the bumpstops all the time. With the custom built H&R Motorsport setup the dampers were shortened, revalved and running higher rate springs. While there still is limited travel (as we don't want the car crashing into the pavement on compression) it is properly setup for it now. I'll be offering these custom built kits for sale so if you're interested drop me a PM or an email to brian@rotiform.com

I've been following this car for a while in various places, always enjoy seeing new pictures of it.
I had a buddy ask the guys at rotiform for wheels for my C4, the forged were a little out of my price range though. And the cast wheels would be difficult to drill to 130 if I recall. I was hoping one of the sets you went through for this car would be for sale

Great car, and awesome build!

So nice!! I really like the 17" e26 are the centers hard to find?

Are you running EVO uprights, I hope so if you are that low all the time.
