Very clean execution. She looks so shiny! Is it because of photoshop or is it from a great detail job?

So you're happy with just the springs obviously?

How much does the swift springs drop you by?

It's hard to tell from the pics, but it looks as though you roughly have an inch gap between the tyre and the wheel arch yeh?

Do you ever get any scrubbing?

I have always liked the amount of dish the varianza's offer, they create an illusion that you're running more severe widths/offsets

Car's looking great! Now picture it with a set of metallic blue Rotora BBK's behind those Works! I sent you a link w/ more pics of them BTW.

Do you rub at all with the 235/35's up front?

There is no rubbing issue with this set up due to Swift springs dropped only 0.8 all around. The reason the rear look high because of the slope on the pavement, other than that on even surface about 2 1/2 fingers gap all around.
