Ride?
Hey Everyone, is there much of a ride difference between 17" wheels with 245/40 in the back and 225/45 in the front and 18" wheels with 255/35 in the rear and 225/40 in the front on a stock suspension? Thx

An inch and a quarter from a spring pad? I think the parts guy may be mistaken. An inch and a quarter is about 32mm. A #4 pad is only 17 mm thick.
Have the parts guy set a #1 spring pad on the counter right next to a #4 spring pad. The difference in thickness between the two pads is how much lower the car will sit.

...been waiting for the right moments to take these pix for a long long time...
I went out after 1am and came back in after 3am two separate nights to make these shots.
Building in the background is Rolf's French-Bavarian Brasserie ... Lights reflected off the car thanx to Lyric Coffee Shop's neon lights behind & to the right of me.
Those neon lights light up the white of the hi-rise apartment building's bricks to make the orange glow you see here all the way to the top. This was a few nights before the two above, before I had all those spots to myself.

Thanx guys ... I'm finally really beginning to feel like I have a handle on this photography thing w/a real camera & quality lenses! 
These all being taken w/very long shutter speeds and lenses stopped down a lot for a deep DOF & Sharpness.
