You sure you want to do a drop? As far as I can see, there doesn't appear to be much clearance.

they are a bit heavier, but the difference is actually way smaller than i thought. also because the tires are not the crappy contis, the grip has dramatically improved.

there's still quite a bit of space at the back, which kinda bothers me. I'll have to be careful in front though.

the plan was to paint them black in case the silver didn't go too well on white. but it turned out pretty good i think so i'm not going to paint them and ruin the resale value =P
