Thanks for the feedback passnu2. I am going to try the F-sport springs and I'll post pictures when I am done with the whole setup. How did you deal with the anticipation? All I am thinking is 10 weeks GRRRRRRRRR wish it was like 10 days or something. Also how much did your tires run you?

I would do 275/30/19. Then the front and rear have similar diameters. This way if you use the F sports which give an even drop, you will keep an even wheel gap to. The car sits dead level OEM, it just doesnt look that way because of the staggered tires with the same sidewall series of 40.
Most members on here run 275-30-19 and 235-35-19. This combo is great and you will get no rubbing. The side wall will be even on both front and rear so the protectino should be the same.
