the cat back is Tanabe Medalion Touring and the wheels are 19x10+38 front and 19x10.5+5. need spacer for sure on the front to make it flush.

Ok it turned out I may not need the lower control arm after all, but it's too late since I ordered it already. I put the coilovers on and the car looks great with these wheels, but i have a problem seating beads on my rear wheels. they don't seat and leak air when the wight of the car is on them so I may need wider or taller tires to seat them. here are some pictures of the car for now. It's very dirty and i need to be detailed when i'm done with it.



when slammed all the way it barley clear the fender. so I don't know if wider tire is an option.

This is how it sits now.

i can't get it lower with out rubbing. i bought a rear camber arm to get more camber, but i don't want it to button out everywhere i go so i raised the car a little. still looks good enough for me. now i just need to get front camber kit to get it where i need it to be.

I can drive like that till I hit a bump so I raised it back up. It'll be a problem too if I give 4 people ride. I may end up pulling it out more anyway.
