LOL I now own these wheels as Eric has now gotten his works. Once my works deliver I will put these up for sale... also just put XXR's instead of wheel sizes and offsets. Lots of pulling and lots of camber and lots of stretch~

Yea, Erics silver LS is on stock arms. Natural camber due to the drop. And any 11" with decent offset will take some pulling to fit. Btw his LS is on Megan's with the rear springs drooped 1" since Megan's don't allow you to go that low in the rear.

Why'd you switch the factory air out for coils? Was it junk?

The previous owner removed the air suspension for a strutmasters coil spring setup.
The strutmasters were luxurious in a straight line, but in corners the car felt like a boat, and was dangerous. After the coilovers were installed, the steering response improved for some reason, and cornering is exactly as I want it to feel. I'm still working on adjusting the dampers to where I want it.

also most air suspensions esp the UCF11 cars have already deteriorated beyond economical repair due to age, so most people swap them out for traditional coil spring/strut combination.
