Hows the ride and everything compared to IS?
In my opinion the RC is smoother and solid feeling however it has more body roll. But on the other hand it breaks necks all day. Getting thumbs up at lights and on the highway aost on a daily basis the new springs will help a tremendous amount

Nice wheels. Looking forward to pics with the drop (mostly in the front) to complete the look.

Go with the TNF170 Tanabe kit. Perfect ride and height. I just finished swapping in this kit on my RC. Let me know if you need someone for the install....I'm in Geo Town and I'm reasonable.

Where is Geo town? I just go springs today. I should be good. I have lowered several cars and trucks. As well as 8 separate air ride set ups

What made you choose 275 over 285? Also, are those Continental Extreme DWS or DW's? I'm between the DWS and Pilot Super Sports - very different tires I know...
