what are some risks of running this low without fender liners? Other than wires chewing through of course.

A lot of guys in here are dumped, but how many of you have actually invested in upgrading vital suspension components besides springs/shocks? I mean things like camber adjustible arms, roll center adjusters, traction rods, etc..
haha nah, I'm on PBM coils

My 2 minute photochop skills are better than I expected lol. I was sure that I was going to be called out on it being fake

Check out redphoenix. He's on the gixxer_drew setup and he's pretty low. He said he maxxed his out once to see how low they'd go and the fender sat on the lip of his wheel.

Pretty sure my 18" wheels are the same size as everyone elses 18" wheels in this thread

also pretty sure the picture of the quarter leaning up against the under pan of my car says that my "huge *** kit" isnt the lowest part on my car
