How low is your car, or what lowering springs are on it?

Do you have more pics of your car? I'm seriously considering getting these wheels in the silver polish and would love to see how they look at different angles.

Thanks

Use SEARCH and you will find plenty of discussion on alignment problems associated with lowered ISx50 cars, it's very common especially with cars that are very low.

Do you think with FSport springs, with the higher gap in the front, rubbing will still be an issue on turns with the Dynas? The FSports sit kinda high up front and have a pretty big gap, much higher than the H&R's for sure.

i'm looking at a similar set-up as op, but with fsport springs. is the general consensus that lowering is the issue, or offset? or both? i have a 250 awd.

Offset, rim width and tire sizes are much bigger issues than the lowering.
