CNTLAW got some new shoes!!!!
CNTLAW,
Since you're pic was the only one w/ a side-shot and readily available, my buddy photoshopped your car w/ these specific HRE's so I can see what our car would look like w/ them
.....just wanted to share w/ you 
hope you don't mind?

that is exactly why i can't wait to drop mine!!!!
because as you stated, I also feel that w/ the longer clk nose, by lowering the car it will give the perception that the car is longer.......ditto on the rear drop...gotta tell my buddy to adjust his coilover photoshop paintbrush!!! :p

After seeing this pic, i cant wait to get my HRE's and KW's installed now! :p
Also, the car is looking longer only because its much lower, i dont think the wheels have anything to do with it.

.....just wanted to share w/ you hope you don't mind? the new ones looks nice, but i dont think they looked they was fitted 100% correctly...
in contrary, the stock ones looks perfect...
