daytime pics yeah i want a lil drop. nothing big. the teins i had on my accord...i thought it wouldn't be that low, well it ended up with stock tires and wheels pretty much slammed. but only tanabe makes springs for the new ES right now right? i want something around 1 inch or so.

very nice! great choice of wheel.

Anyone have any clue as to why the es still has a larger gap up front than on the rear between the tire and fender?

iunno, but thats how it was with the factory wheels, there was barely a gap in the rear, but a HUGE gap in the front..... since the overal size of my tires are smaller than OEM specs, i think my ground clearance in the rear seems to be lower

Ditto -- a drop would really make it look great

im looking into the Tanabe SUSTEC NF210, the drop is 1.5/1.0 f/r.... sees conservative, but i want to find somnething a lil less than that. i don't want to drop my car too low again. anyone have the tanabe or anything else on the 4th gen ES?

How can they offer the NF210 for the 04 ES330 if the Tanabe website doesn't have this application?
