Thank you so much for these pictures! I am now set on +45 rears! 245/35 and 275/30 seems to be the way to go! Love the offset and stance!

Thanks, I posted them for ya Designo esp the middle one ha! I think the DF's ae going to be low enough, a little scared it may be too low but the front needs it bad...I have had my 1st Gen lowered and my other cars...I doubt I will want to slam a new luxury car lower than that.....regarding to more mods I have a lot of other vehicle hobbies....so not much else besides the springs and a roof spoiler for now....there is other minor stuff I could think of doing but then again it doesn't need much else in my eyes!

I like your style! Wheels, modest drop and a roof spoiler is perfect IMO!

Looks great. Once your lowered. you will prob. rub. If so, youll need to do some minor fender work.

your car is lower so that is going to tuck your wheels more than this and those tires are overspec even 20x9 +32 and 20x10.5+39 wasn t aggressive enough once I lowered the car some more especially if your trying to be flush and low. Just roll with the more aggressive specs and get Vredestine tires that have a super curved sidewall that grant you more fender clearance. Sorry for thread jacking car looks great install some coils and spacers and the car will be perfect!!!!
