Well I really don't know what to comment on the cars or the photography. IMHO, both outstanding!

Thanks guys, I'm definately looking into rims. I'd like to get Carlsson 1/16 replicas or TSW Bremmas but I'll have to save up first.

Yeah, I really like those Carlssons. I'll have to save up about 2.5 grand. About 1.5 grand left to go.

EDIT:
Will I have to lower it if I go with 19" rims? I heard you don't.
If you do, how much would springs/coilovers cost?

don't have to, although it'll look more aggressive. springs about 350-400 with install, coilovers depends... around 1 grand and up with install

dchou: I have a set of used 19" staggered TSW Bremmas that I might sell if the price is right. I got a thread on the classified.

Where are you located? If you are in So. Cali then you can check them out in person.

Let me know..Thanks

I like your LM's. The suspension looks really nice but I wonder how the ride is? Is it bouncy when you lowered your car like that?

got coilovers... ones i got you can adjust the dampers from soft to very stiff. so it all depends... either way, the ride is much more stiff compare to stock.

Thanks again, everyone. The night was the last warm one of the year, around 55 degrees and perfectly clear. I'll have new pics if/when I get rims, but that won't be for a while.

The camera is a Sony DSC-W1, nothing really special.
