Thanks for the props.... Well, to be honest, I can't truthfully comment on the ride, since I think it is still settling down and I only got it yesterday. Coming from the stock smooth ride, is a change to a stiffer racy feel. I am very happy with the look though. As you can see, it looks quite clean, but the ride is something I probably have to get used to it. I did do a little more adjustments on the ride quality to soften it up... I will post a better opinion on the comfort. But I would definately recommend it. Forget about springs... do it the right way with coilovers IMO. You have the "flexibility".......

is300 Wheels
Hey what do you all think about the is300 wheels? I am using a 25mm spacer in the rear as you can see.... I was actually looking for the gs, but although they are not too expensive here in LA, they are hard to find. You big suv dub dudes please be nice ok.. I am not much into the huge chrome wheels. Sorry, that's just my taste that's all.

Hey CMC, I honestly don't know how low the car is... I directed the shop on how low to drop it, but I used the old finger method. I used 1.5 front, and 2.5 in the rear. As farr as the ride, I have 8 in the rear and 4 in the front... I will test it that way for a few days and see if I need to have it softer. I hope this helps.....

If you want to figure out how low it is compared to stock, measure the distance between the center of the hub (the center of the centercap of the wheel) to the bottom of the fender
Then someone with a STOCK height GS needs to do the same...
Then get the difference....viola...

Thanks for the compliments guys... I appreciate it. I realize I did the emblems backwards, but I thought they might look better that way. Or should I change them? I have an extra set.....
