Default Bagged 2013 CT

Got her two months ago with 25k miles. Had a slammed 2004 WRX for almost three years so this was a rough change at first.
Dropped her off last Saturday to get the bags installed and picked up on Thursday.
Installed camber bolts in the upper strut bolt slot on the fronts and rolled fenders to get my wheels from the WRX to fit yesterday.
Got an alignment today and decided to take a few pictures.

Air Force Suspension Struts
Air Lift Performance 3P management
Dual VIAIR 444 compressors
3/8 lines and auto draining water traps
18x9.5 +18 Work VS-KF's on 225/40/18 Ohtsu FP7000 tires.

That looks awesome, great job! You really have to know what you're doing to get such a tight fit.

The photos you took are really top notch as well

I never got into the whole stance or bagged thing, but I'm more a track guy..

With that said, I love what you (and oldwineguy)'s setups, they're clean and not too overdone.

Thanks for sharing.

Thank you! Simplicity is key.

I'm currently leaning towards a TOMS kit, but I'm looking into a Wald kit as well.
Thinking about selling the wheels and getting something else, but not too sure if I want to part with them.
I'm happy with where the car is right now and I'm not in a rush to do anything else.

Mine is @geeeooohhh. I believe OldWineGuy is @oldwineguy.

I love both the Toms and Wald kits, beautiful pieces. I'm just far too cheap at times so I bought the replica Toms for my 2012.

My funds after savings and investments mainly go to guns, my weekend ride and the lady (lol)..

Keep us posted on the progress!

I saw your thread and I'm considering going that route. Looks wonderful for a replica, but I was wondering if there's anything that can differentiate between a real kit and a replica.

I'm currently in the works of selling of my wheels. The KF's are the last memories I have of my previous vehicle. It's time to part with these. haha

Before you do purchase, please see my thread, I find it fairly detailed..

If you have any questions about the kit I purchased, I'll be more than happy to answer any of them through PM so as not to derail this thread (or you can ask in the thread link below).

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ct-...-sport-se.html

-- my only thing I would think that is different between the replica and the actual Toms is the fitment and the fact it comes with weatherstripping. I am sure the quality of the polyurethane (I think authentic Toms is poly as well like mine) may be a tad thicker, but the replica kit is by no means thin.

--> Also, if only the specs on the KF wheels were a bit more CT friendly without needing a roll/pull/camber adjustment, I would buy them.
