I think each letter is seperate and not conected at all, that maybe explains the crookedness

Thanks man, I actually have mine on now too, just waiting to make a new Sig with new pics of the rims, i went with the 18s because of $$$ and bad roads, PLEASE post pics of the 19s, i bet they are incredible. Next on the list is painting my calipers and Brembo rotors, which will show nicely with the open spoke design. That will do until i can afford a big brake kit. Cant wait to get my Kleemann suspension!!!!! soon....im dying in anticipation!

Petie-
I went with the H&R sport with koni adjustable(the roads are really bad in Montreal due to the winters creating pot holes )
The kleeman, from what I heard is the best, but just cost too much for me.
I recently purchased a big brake kit by win power, they are 6 piston calipers and I think 13.1" . Going to put them on during the winter and not use the clk during that period
The 2/5's look better in my opion than the brabus i have on.
The dish in the rear is crazy, only wished winter wasn't comin!
