Clean car new rims. good combo.

Finally got my rims on the car a few days ago. I wanted to clean it up first befor I showed by baby off. Comments and Critisism welcome. I dont really have any plans to drop car due to past experiance with last car.

man, that car is SCREAMING to be lowered.

just invest into a quality suspension. instead of just a set of lowering springs, get a full coilover suspension...or get a set of adjustable dampeners, and coilover sleeves..ride wont be as harsh, and you'll have adjustability

either way, the car looks good, but it needs to be lowered imo

Looks pretty good as it is. If you DO decide to lower it, 1-1.5" will significantly improve the car's profile as well as handle better and depending on hardware choice. Don't go coilovers, sleeve or full kit, if you care about your lower back, ha ha. A nice set of Neuspeed Sports, Tein STech or even HTech (only 0.75" drop....) would do you just fine.

oh no im not even close to done lol. I do have some plans for it. IM getting it tinted in the next few weeks and I ordered some tyc blacked out tails for it. I also looked in to underdrive pulleys and timing gears, But i just got back to work so it will be a list that will be put together a little slower than usual.

Hey man, I new to this section, I live in Thunder Bay, I got a Fiji Blue vic as well, I lowered it 2" got 18"ADR Sokudo's custom dipped in Fiji Blue to match the car, and if I dont say so myself, it looks a heluva lot better lowered than compared to stock height, so you should reconsider.

neuspeed or h&r sport springs + koni yellow shocks.
the ride will be comfortable if you adjust the shocks properly.

a sport drop with the 7th gen isn't too low.
