Thanks! Ksport rides nice just need to adjust the dampering to my specs. When I got them installed I didn't know what setting to go with and I've been lazy..

2009 AWD with 10 x 9"s & 10.5s" Vossens lowered with Tanabes

I haven't posted on here since I did this wheel set up a couple years ago but I have 2009 AWD with 10 x 9"s & 10.5s" Vossens lowered with Tanabes. Sits and looks great but drives like crap, shimmys a lot at a stop and up to 20 miles an hour. Vibrates a lot, always has. I tolerate it because it looks damn good and I don't drive the car too much as I have a daily driver, but don't like the way it rides. Some of my issue may be is one of the front tires is mis-matched in terms of mileage or tread life, but not totally sure, I think the smoothness is taken out of the equation with the lowering. I had my 1st generation lowered, but did not lower my 2nd generation. I think the last pic, the car was packed with stuff from home depot, ha!

yeah lowered rolling shots can help to see the leveling of the vehicle.
