Hey everyone! I want to say thanks to Michael @ Acute Performance for getting the Avant Garde M310 wheels, Hankook tires, & KSport coilover kit!! Also thanks to Garry Romani for matte black shadowline trim. I finally had some time to take a few pics but it rained today so no chance to wash the car.

After installing KSport coilover kit. I forgot to ask the installer what settings he left them at
Pic.4
Right rear wheel
Pic.5
Right front wheel
Pic.6
Left rear view
So far I like the KSports but they are a bit bouncy. I will try to adjust them when I get back next month. Rear might need a raise b/c of passengers weight but we'll see. I do feel more of the road imperfections but I expected that since I was going for sporty look. I haven't done a lot of spirited driving yet since I'm still letting everything settle in.
Those who have KSport coilovers, how many miles did it take for your kit to settle?
Thanks for looking!

Just tell your wife it looks cleaner in black than covered in brakedust.. even better, Ask her to clean your wheels twice a week as silver wheels look badwhen dirty
BTW.. do I see chrome kidneys? you might consider changing them to fit the wheels.

Thanks fellas! Yea I had to switch back to chrome bc the other set of black kidney grilles are pitted bad. I'll definitely get around to it later.
Inktoxicated, I just noticed you're running 20s, does your tires rub?
