    Still waiting on these coilovers to arrive=/ Might have something cooking for new wheels next season. I'm selling a bunch of stuff from my Starion build=( It sucks to do, since the car is my dream car, but some things need to be done. Now I'm hoping stuff sells so that I can save some and use some to fix things over winter. Maybe do bodywork and fling some new paint on this=~)

                It'll be fine=) It doesn't hang any lower, just sticks out about an inch. The car is however the awesome 3/4" lower. I'll get some shitty pics later I hope. I sent the same one to Brian on his phone about a million times.

                            I'm still around, driving the truck. Car is up in Green Bay getting torn down for modification.

                            I like the new pics. A straight on side shot shows the ride height good, but shows how the front is tucked beyond centerline a bit far, I recommend keep to 3/4 shots.

                              Are you saying it is raked? Sure is=) lol Its super hard to get the ass down on a Ti. I need shorter springs and tall RSM's. I have a treat in store for winter hopefully that will get that tail down. The front looks goofy in the side pic because there is a big dip in the road in front of me, making my bumper look higher.

                                  I meant that the wheel center point is way abve the center point of the arc the fender/bumper hole makes, so you get a large empty spot between the lower part of the tire and the front bumper. Not a bad thing, just one of those weird things excentuated by the angle of the photo.

                                      Saw some flurries yesterday and decided it was time to change out my wheels, and raise it a bit, until I get my beater insured.

                                      Last picture with this setup:

                                      Looks so gross=( Can't wait for what is in store though.

                                        Yup, those wheels and stance look kinda dorky. Get the beater insured so you can put your baby away!

                                          Put it away and tear it apart:D Motor coming out is one of the first things happening so I can get a jump on tucking and shaving the bay. I need to peel all of this plastidip off too.
