Get an ELM from Renntech. Then you can just slam it when you want to

I personally think all reps look good! And 19's are definitely the best combo of looks, ride quality and performance

The well known but very infamous member motorkas has some very nice titanium forgestars if you like that look for sale in the classifieds.

How was that for a stig like plug BT?

get the 19s forgestars that are listed for sale. Lowering it bit makes the car look nice. Once you put the 19s on, you'll realize it.

Love it!!!!!

I was giving Charlie (chas930) until the end of the day to see your offer on the LAX equipment but he beat me to it (he would have gotten a text from me - just letting you know I'm also thinking about you)

There's a sale pending on the Forgestars but if the interested buyer doesn't contact me by the end of the day today - I'll put them back up.

For the OP - here's 19' Forgestars and 19' Reps on a non-lowered 55 (I will be getting the ELM eventually for the reasons Tgoss stated but after my recent trip to the track - headers and a pulley come first)

Here's the 19's
