Ok so here is a pic of the car lowered with stock wheels! Omg this thing is dumped, the pic isnt the best I will try to get more. Also a little hick up with shipping (The delivery driver didn't really care about the handle with care on the box, kind of like pet detective, lol) I have a couple dings on my rear wheels and the guys over at Concavo are sending me to new rear wheels, so I wont have pics of the car with the wheels on it for a couple of days.
Car looks much better lowered, even on the stock wheels!

Ok so a package came today that I am super pumped on! I got my wheels and lowering springs today.
I am going to lower the car tomorrow and I will take pictures of that on my stock wheels and then I will post pics this weekend when I get my wheels mounted.
So here is a picture of the custom made springs that are getting installed today

Hopefully a better shot
Ok here is my car bad pic I know, I kept the guys late at the wheel shop and my kids were crying blah blah blah. I will in fact though post some way better pics tomorrow at work, this is just a quick teaser. Dang this thing looks aggressive in person! I got sooooo many looks just on the way home (2 miles)
Big thanks to Concavo for making all this happen! It is a lot harder to test fit wheels on the basis of custom made springs especially when I am in San Diego and they are in Florida. They did a great job and I am very happy. I had an opportunity to take some pics this morning with a better camera. Let me know what you guys think.

These would look amazing on my black GS. So how's the ride compared to stock? How low is the drop? How's the scrapings in and out of driveways? I'm a fan of deep dish wheels with lips but these have changed my mind. Thanks for the pics!

Yes, just a little. So the guy who made the custom springs made two different drops "Low Down" and more conservative drop. I wanted the conservative drop but unbeknownst to me he sent me the low down drop and I installed it. So with stock rims and tires there was no rubbing, and with these wheels I would have had to go with 285-25-20 and 245-30-20 to achieve no rubbing.
