I am not certain, but none of my friends said my car looks stupid with standard suspension & a 19" wheel setup.

praised what size tires in the back they look thick as fuck. kickass!

here mine lowered on coilovers. with 20x9 front 20x10.5 rear. im going to by 3mm spacers once spring comes around so i can lower the front more because where its set now is as low as it will go without the wheel hitting the strut spring perch. so 3mm should allow me to clear it and still get the wheel under the fender its gonna be really tight. may have to grind down the inner fender a lil tiny bit

+1 - if i was your friend, I wouldn't either. NICE ride... everyone has their own opinions. I plan on getting 19's in the spring and not lowering - ill be happy

PTL, how's the ride on them stretched out tires of yours? I just hate the road here in our state specially during the winter times....just cracked my one of my rims after hitting a pothole on I-5. Just curious if there are any big difference with the ride.
