Check out my new rims! - 5Zigen Fighters
Picked up my new rims today. 5Zigen Fighters with 215/45R17 Kumho Ecsta 711s.
I'm hoping to do the Eibach Pro-Kit / Koni Yellows later this summer.
(I hope the upload worked...)

Rep Power: 319 Thanks! Actually the rear is slightly lowered because I have the stock rims and tires in the back seat/trunk. lol My other pictures look like I've got a trunk full of helium balloons or something. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/IMG]
I'm looking to buy a house soon, so that will be taking priority over the lowering right now. Plus I want to do some of the work myself, which means I'll need a garage (which will come with the house).

Your car will look pretty tight then you put the springs on in the summer.
(not saying it doesn't already )

Rep Power: 319 Cool. I guess I don't have to worry about flogging my tires too hard. I've read some stories about the 712s short life. 
I did some 'spirited' driving 2nite. What a difference a wheel/tire combo make! Those stockers would squeal and whine and complain around almost any corner driven faster than "grandma" speed. These suckers take the corners without any protest. I can't wait till I tweak the ride later to reduce the body roll.
Shopping list:
Eibach Pro-Kit
Koni Yellows
Neuspeed Front strut bar
Neuspeed Rear strut bar (does this exist yet?)
Greddy EVO
I.C.E.
etc, etc, etc...

Rep Power: 319 Here's a pic after took the stock rims/tires out of the back. hrmm, maybe I should just leave them in the back to keep that "lowered in the back" look. lol
