These are some pics that I took of my car after I had my kit installed. Sorry the pic quality is not that great. I think the car is a little too low, but it looks great.

BOTH. SSR is Speed Star Racing and it's the same brand TireRack sells. Just that TireRack's SSR wheels are named differently than Japanese versions.

Its lowered on H&R, but I'm not exactly sure how low it went. Because I bought it from the dealership with it lowered on the 18's. And I've never rode in a stock IS so I really don't know.

I think we passed each other by Sunset Place a week or two ago, it had to have been you. I have a GGP with the L-Sportline body kit.

GirlieGirlLEXO and some other IS's along with me are going to try and meet hopefully Saturday night on S. Beach. I am waiting for a few others to reply to my emails. If you want to join us you are more than welcome, I want to see your car up close. After we meet we'll cruise the beach.

Let me know and I'll set a time to meet up.
