Okay, so it's pretty dark but i thought I'd share anyway. More (Better) pic's to come. I'm very happy with the way it turned out, although it's kind of a bitter sweet story.

Yeah, I wanna go about an 1.5inch up front and 1 in the rear. That's about it, and it should look real good.

I'm going to lower the front 1.5" and the rear 1". I purchased a set of Tanabe NF220 springs, but I haven't gotten around to lowering it.

How is the ride quality on those Nexen n7000's? Last thing, car looks sweet so where does the bitter part of the story come in?

The ride quality is great, it's smooth and sporty with the low profile. I would totally recommend them.

As for the bitter side of the story. The place where i bought the wheels insisted i get the rear fenders rolled. I wasn't too keen on the idea, but i plan on lowering the car so i decided on doing it. When i picked up the car the fenders looked like they were rolled with a sledge hammer. My wife and I lost it. We had to get the owner involved. Well 2 weeks and $2,000 worth of body work the car looks brand new again. The good thing is I didn't have to pay for the body work and i had a rental car, it's just the added stress that was caused because of this. In the end it looks great.
