hmm those tail lights i almost thought WOULDN'T pass on any car but i actually have to admit they don't look that bad on your car bro, it has to be cause it complements the color of your car and the wheels plus the black emblem. for being different. not bad man

I think that's the lowest I'd go. I have my wife and 2 lil kids at times.

The tail lights go with the overall look of the car, to me they compliment the car more than the stock red ones

It depend on how its leave the factory some people need to drop a lot other like myself had to raise about 1.5 half it was scraping the drive way somewhat ..but upon viewing I know that Megans can be slam if choose to and then the ride is somewhat stocky in my opinion

Thanx, but I ended up vinyl wrapping them red. They look good too. It looks like slightly tinted red tails now.

Offsets aren't too aggressive. They're 38 both front and rear.

I'm sure it'll be real close to stock. I'm lowered about 2.5 and the ride is real good. I would imagine at 2.5 or less it would be real close to stock without the floatiness.

yeap, i say leave the rear if youre not rubbing and drop the front a bit.. you might wanna turn the wheel either left or right (cause the wheels lift when you turn in either direction in case you didnt know) to see how much clearance you have from the tire to the fender and go from there..
