DAAUUM! Looks really good. What are F&R rim widths and tire sizes?
What are the millimeter length adjustments of the F&R links?

At what speeds? Not saying it can't be done, but should it be? That car must be all scraped up on the bottom.

everyday speeds.

hwy: 70-80 mph

No scraping really, he is actually very careful on how he drives around bumps and ramps.

thats the height I started off with and agree looks the bomb but I raised it after 2 days of scraping everything from the guts going over changes in height (carpark ramp), to my front lip spoiler and rear pipes going into my driveway - which is pretty flat really.

Looks killer but I personally don't think I would be able to drive the car like that.

My car sits that low sometimes and I don't have much rubbing problems. Sometimes but very very rarely I will scrape the front fender on top if I'm pulling into a drive at speed and turning. Other than that there are no problems I don't know if my offset is deferent or what.

I think it looks good. If you don't have any driving problems I'd leave it.

Not that I am aware of. I think he could be running a full coilover set. But with his new wheels, he could have switch to an air ride suspension.
