hmm..well when i had my h&r super sports...i had no rubbing at all when i was on or not on speed bumps...going over dips/bumps wasnt bad either...you dont have to angle at all really. ride quality was given up just a little however the handling was improved.

with my coilovers i maxxed out in the back and i went...pretty low in the front and i was rubbing hardcore LOL so i had to raise it up get new tires..215/35/18 to be safe. also going over speedbumps/dips/potholes i have to be more careful on angle. my ride quality on coils is about the same as my h&r super sports...but alot stiffer considering i have my coilovers on max stiffness cause i life stiff rides. handling has been great! ^__^

its a little past the fender my wheels are 18x9.5 in the back and 18x8.5 in the front...with a 5mm spacer so its a little past the fender! i like it poking a little bit with some stretched tires! and...height wise...the best way i could say it is if you have an iphone 4 or 5 put that on the ground leaning on your front bumper...my bumper would cover 4/5ths of the iphone... and with my fender gap there is none cant even stick a fingernail

ill try posting up better pictures since those are camera phone pics and its hard to see everything
