wheel specs are 20x9 for front and 20x10 for rear, at first there was rubbing after lowering so a little shaving of the fender had to happen, currently no rubbing.

I assume offsets are 38 front and 40 rear?

So after driving the car for two weeks I love these coil overs, the feel on the highway is perfect and there is no vibrations it feels very smooth which I love the most. The only thing keep hearing is like a metal pop from coil overs only when I hit a big bump though guessing that's normal. Other than that these coil overs are perfect.

I don't think that sound is normal ... especially on the GS.

I'll try to make a video but its not bad its like the spring joint making the noise. I think its normal cause doesn't sound that bad, and only occurs over big bumps.

can you check the bottom collar to see if it's ok?
