How is the ride? Is it harsh compared to say the Eibach? Do you have shocks on your car?

The ride is what I would call very firm wouldn't go as far to say harsh...I can't compare them to the Eibach I have not ridden in a car with the Eibach springs. Shocks are Bilstein Sport front part number BE5-2802 and rear part number BE5-2803. A vast improvement from stock...handling is greatly improved you can take turns a speed and not have a ton of body role or your front end driving down...even when diving in a straightline the car feels more stable.

Looks too low to me with the stock rim size. The gap around the rim relative to the wheel arch is less at the top of the wheel.

I am guessing somewhere around 2.0" to 2.5" inches not sure though.

I was supposed to have my 19" Enkei Aegis in Hyper Silver on by now but the tire shop made a error and has to find "a"....that's right "a" as in one...19"x8.5" Hyper Silver for the front the one they had is painted silver. Going to be hard to find. The Hyper Silver on a Silver GS is killer looking. The rears will be 19"X9.5" and the fronts 19"x8.5" Hopefully they will be on next week.
