New Cleaner Pics Today With My New Shoes

Lowered the car about 1/2 inch and cleaned it up. I like having the best of both worlds because if I get sick one side I just look at the other...sounds kinda silly buy I think this is only way I'm gonna be able to hang on to a set of wheels for a while before I get bored.

Hope these pics are better

You sure polished that car up. You said your going to lower that even more or have you already done that. It looks very low as is. Keep up the good work, car is looking fantastic.

Thanks for all the compliments...all of you! It means a lot to me because all of my close friends are not into cars like I am and I have nowhere to project my thoughts and ideas with.

Thanks...Now that I lowered it more I'm rubbing on the left side only with passengers...I might lift it up because you can't really tell the difference.

They're Sevas S-55 Black...they're not very exspensive but they are really nice. I've had 2 sets of 3pc wheels...HRE 547 and DPE Ro7 and they never would ever balance out right like these did the first time. I'm quite happy with these and I'm loving the fact that I can just look on the other side if I get sick of one side...kinda funny but I think it's a brilliant idea for guy like me that gets sick of wheels.

Those S-55's are on nation wide back order so they're hard to get right now but they will be around in a few months.

That's a tricky question....Here ya go:

Brabus Sport Springs - 1 coil cut
Front - #2 pad on top - #2 pad on bottom
Rear - # 4 pad on top - #2 pad on bottom

With Koni Adjustable Yellow's

My car used to be slammed on 19's without the #2 pads on bottom, but by adding the #2 pads on the bottom it lifted my car 2" from a 4" drop.

And if you're wondering about ride quality...the car rides excellent because of the Koni's. Koni's can handle any drop as long as you cut the shock bump stops.

I guess the next thing is to get new head lights...but I'm not getting the cheese grater projectors, I'm just probably getting some brand new clean lights. Or I think I might try to get together with VIPCLK320 and try to install Eclass projectors that look sweet and not cheap like ours do.

Since I drive my car so much I wish I could just get the car painted up front because it has a lot of nicks from the freeway pebles. You can see them more on black cars.

A supercharger would be nice but I think putting one on a V8 is much better than a V6.
