Im not happy with the result.. The front tires (225-40-18) rubbing real crazy.. Im gonna get 215-40-18 series tires on Monday and swap 225 series in the rear.. Gotta have tire stretch and more slam.. Here are the pics:







I will post more pics on MOnday if I get new tires.. Enjoy the pics..

That´s a very nice set of Work you have. Usually, with that wheel set-up it should clear the fenders. It´s probably due to your aggressive drop. What springs and off-sets are you using?

I don't understand why people lower their car so low that the top of the tire is like way inside the fender. That doesn't even look right unless you're at a show. How is it even drivable on the street? You basically can't even go up any driveways...
