Thanks guys! It definitely gets a lot of attention compared to stock. Loving it so far.

what brand of tire are you using? i noticed some tires are fatter than others. are you rubbing in both front & back? do you think a less "aggressive" drop (say the soon to be released Tanabe spring's 1.1 /1.2" drop) would be okay w/ your 245/35 & 285/30 setup?Originally Posted by djpeakSD
Yes, just a little. So the guy who made the custom springs made two different drops "Low Down" and more conservative drop. I wanted the conservative drop but unbeknownst to me he sent me the low down drop and I installed it. So with stock rims and tires there was no rubbing, and with these wheels I would have had to go with 285-25-20 and 245-30-20 to achieve no rubbing.

Also using the cheaper brand tires, the side wall is fatter. If you dont want fat side walls,
go with Nitto, Pirelli , Falken ,V12 " 50/50 on the side wall "

With the Tanabes you will for sure not rub! I am running the Falken 452's. Im pretty happy with them so far.Originally Posted by since5oh

I don't even know to be honest with you, but it is dumped! Im guessing at least 2 inches. The guy who made them, made two ride heights, and I wanted the more conservative one but he sent me the low down ones by mistake. Ride quality suffers so I am just waiting for the Tanabes.Originally Posted by TitanFan
How many inch's was the drop?
