Hawaiiboy808---Pics H&R Coilovers and New Rims!!
Wanted to give an update. I finally got my car back today. Coilovers went in monday and the rims arrived this morning. Gonna get an alignment and adjust the coilovers for a better stance. Out of the box, the fronts sit a little too low for daily driving and the rear is a tad bit too high. So, I'm gonna get it adjusted and what not and have an alignment done. Pics arent the best but it'll do. I'll try to post some better one but here goes.
I'm really happy with the way things turned out. The ride is alot better than I expected. Its not harsh at all. Firmer than stock but manageable.
I was trying to link it so that you can view them on this page but I don't know how. I'll figure it out later. Enjoy! All comments welcome!!

I forgot to post the specs of the rims/tires. Let me go look. I'll be right back!!
edit:
Specs on Rims and Tires:
Rims: Front-19x8.5 Rear 19x10 offsets (?)
Fronts cleard the brake but we spaced it just a little so that it wouldn't rub on the suspension. The back was pushed out a little as well.
Tires: Front-225/35/19
Rear-265/30/19

Working with Steve...He seems to be the go to guy for those. Emailed him but someone replied saying that he was on vacation so I'll just have to wait. Thats the next big mod I'm going to do. I'm gonna do the metal flat emblem and clear side markers this weekend.

yeah, he's actually out here in SoCal this week. He was planning to do some installs. As far as clear side markers go, I think they look better on light-colored cars, but that's my preference. I'd recommend Evosport's painted OEM side markers. I recently picked them up for $110.
