    I'm aware of that, but because of the lower rear arches it gives the illusion of reverse rake. I ordered some Vogtland springs with adjustable Koni's yesterday. The Vogtlands drop the front 1.6" andthe rear 1.3", so it should give the car a touch of forward rake, just enough to be slightly aggressive and balance out the fender gaps. :up:

        Pfft, Koni's are for the ballers




        I can afford it so Koni's it is. I was actually very close to getting the Bilsteins but because of rebounding performance and adjustability I decided the Koni's were worth the extra $$.

            Baller status achieved by strut inserts?! Thats the silliest thing I have heard all week. Coilovers are moreso a viable means of achieving said "baller status." :rofl:

                    ballers are the one's who go through pans and rub fenders. to do that you need to get coilovers. try asking curt what he rolls on cause i doubt you could afford anything like it :)
