Another w203 with 19's...
Well, after having them in my garage for a few days, they're finally on...
I can't take pictures for ****, so I'll try to take more soon...
I haven't driven that much or hard on them yet, but at low speeds they totally feel like the stockies. But, when I go on the freeway, they're a lot noisier and bumpy... However, I didn't feel the loss in power that I was expecting.
What do you think?
(the silver one is my aunt's car.)

Yup, they are the T1-S...
I'm thinking about how to drop it. I don't have the $$$ to get coilovers, so I was thinking about springs... But, it doesn't look that bad stock...
And, here is a gratuitous lip pic...

BTW...Did you get alignment already or not yet? If you haven't be sure to do that ASAP.

by the pictures shown, if its not dropped yet i think its looks fine, coming from a modded civic, i really would hate to mess with the suspension, because for me it always leads to headaches
either, sweet car!

It looks driveable right now, but still way to big of wheel well gaps. Dude, we have underpowered cars as is, if you drop it, at least the handling will be alright.
