Thumbs up dropped + new wheels...right after wash

Picked up some new wheels and coilovers, gave her a nice wash and this is the end result. Took the picture with my iphone....not horrible quality but decent.

Looks pretty good I think?

tight setup. How's the ride though? Is it real bumpy now that it's lowered?

Yeah, I bought them off Brian. DPE R05 Variant S. Wheels are 19x8, 19x10 I believe. 225/30/19, 275/30/19...not sure of the offset. It's dropped on the JIC FLT-A2 coilovers. It's a little more bumpy than stock, but not as stiff as I thought it would be. The Tein SS coilovers in my friends Acura TL are a lot stiffer.

I'll have to take better pictures next time I wash, since the car is somewhat dusty already. Thanks for the compliments!
