had the Godspeed Coilovers installed last night. the installer liked them and thought they seemed to be of good quality (he installed a set of KW a week ago and said these weren't "far off" from those). the fronts went very easy. he had to take the whole back seat and rear deck (where the speakers are) out to access the top mount for the rear. i have them set on the softest ride as is this my daily driver. i think i will move it to the middle setting, it is almost too soft! there is a lot of adjustment with these and getting it just right for my driving style will probably take a while. i am running 20x8.5 in front with 245/35/20 tires and i believe a +35 offset and 20x10 with 275/30/20 and +42 offset in the rear. it is low in my opinion, but as of right now it doesn't rub at all (i have NOT rolled my fenders either). the alignment is getting done now and i will be driving about 400 mile round trip this weekend with a family of 4 and hockey gear in the car. i will let you know how it goes!

the first 2 pictures are stock and then to finished product.
