Thanks... I like the height/stance, but am really leary about doing anything that would make the ride any firmer than it already is. I'm sure I'll do something with wheels, maybe springs, sometime in the future, but will wait a while to figure out what I really want to do.

What are your tire specs?

Also, with the H&R Sport springs, do you guys install some kind of camber correction kit? or is it able to be aligned without additional camber correction pieces?

This was before my drop.
19x8.5 (front) et 35 245/35/19 and 19x9.5 (rear) et 35 275/30/19







Now this is after the drop.





I have now changed my tires to 235/35/19 front and 265/30/19 to give it more of a concave look.

This was super slammed...

No rubbing or anything. (this was the result of the air suspension problem of the cold nights) But just for sh*t and giggles.

Looks reall nice! Do you use only springs for that drop? And how low it dropped?

Mine is factory air suspension. I used adjustable links on that. =D

Gotta love the factory air suspension. The rear gap on my car looks the same when the car is in "sleep mode". Slammed!
