Default Ride
The ride is definitely alot more of a sportier ride! I have Megan coil-overs set at 6 clicks up from the softest setting on the front and 3 clicks up from the softest setting on the rear! But it still rides pretty good. But nothing like that stock pillow top matress ride!

Very nice!! I want to get some 5-spokes too, but can't determine which to get. Your setup is very very nice.. Might have to look into these..

The lips sizes are 2.5" up front and 3.5" for the rear!
The setup fits very good with no rubbing at all with any amount of people in the car!
I have new wheels/tires on the way already for the MHT's will be for sale soon!

Looks great. Not a big fan of 5 spoke but those are really nice.

Thumbs up
They look pretty good, just sunken in a little. You're already getting new wheels so I guess you agree. LOL! Can't wait to see the new setup.

I ended up buying a set of Savani Forged wheels with a 5" Lip in the front and a 6" Lip in the rear. Should have them on next week.

Post your new pics up when you get them on!
