Did you use the factory struts? Did the front settle anymore from those pics?

For some odd reason, I actually like it.

Good job.

Yea, i'm using factory struts. The drop is even both front and rear. The picture where it's by the water (boat launch) just looks like the front is raised because the car is parked on a slope. Thanks for all the input everyone.

wheels look good plus the excellent drop (bias) haha. the only thing is the rear looks like its pretty flush with the fender because of the offset, which looks good from the side, but a look from the back means crazy camber and tire changing.

any rubbing with the esp/stock shock combo? How is the ride?

How much for the wheels/tires when you sell them for the 19's? I may be interested, I think it looks good.

also what % tint is that, the car looks perfect to me!
