Default lowered / put wheels on this weekend

more pics on page 4

megan LP coilovers

19x9/10 +25 work euroline type n wheels "custom polished"

falken fk452 215/35 235/15-19 tires

im very impressed with the ride quality with the megan coilovers but i wish they would go lower in the rear... next thing on the list is spacers to get my fitment on point

Mann,,, this is DEF one heck of a way to make an introduction. Drop down into the NELOC forum and intro yourself there as well. You should come out to some of the local events that we have in/around the area. Season is pretty much done for this year,, but there is always stuff popping up here and there.

LS is sick bro!!!

So your megans won't go lower in the rear? weird. I thought they would go lower. eh oh well, your car still looks clean as hell. See what coilovers and wheels can do to a near stock LS.

looks really good

the front fitment looks spot on, a 5mm MIGHT work alright, but it could give it a little too much poke.

rear fitment could use a 10-15mm spacer..maybe more, whatever you need to match the front.

Very clean! I like the stance.

Looks like your GF is unhappy with the ride quality. I know mine is.

Welcome...heck of a first post.

Looks really nice. The offset works for me...I know some here like it aggressive. As for the ride height...I wouldn't get out of my driveway without taking the front bumper off...props
