Default My SC400's progress ...

It hasn't seen much work, but the visual progress is pretty nice

When I got it




After swapping out the Momo's for my BBS RGR's that had been sitting all winter




(Click images for larger pictures)

I'm pretty sure that's where the original springs/struts "settle" after 13 years.

I've got some replacement KYB's and Tanabe's on the way, and after I can roll the rear fenders, I may go a bit wider on the rear tire.

I've got no aggressive plans, but do want to "update" as much of the mechanical parts as I can over the next year.

Thanks for looking

Thanks for the comments guys.

245/45's on 18x9 +35 all around. I think the fronts fit real nice, without being aggressive. The rears (once the fenders are rolled) need to be either wider or a lower off set. I wish I could find a pair of 18x10 or even 19x10 +40's to replace the rears.

those BBS RGR's are definitely a huge upgrade from your old wheels. Looks a lot better.
