          IE3's with Konis, one coil cut up front. I want the rear to be lower, tho.

                Very nice. It seems those tires run wide for 205. I was going to run 215's but those fit nicely. Definitly wider than the 205-45 hankook rs-2's I have.

                I have those wheels- Literally the same wheel. but theyre BBS RG 16x7.5 et20. I think back in the day Dinan originally offered these staggered, and ACT also followed-same specs and design. The rears were 16x8.5 et24 iirc. (the ones Msytem pictured above is obviously a bit bigger)

                      There's now a full photoshoot in the Member's Rides forum, but here's a few killer close-ups of the finished wheels, mounted up and looking amazing.

                            I like them, they seem to be very grippy so far, haven't had them in the wet, though.

                            Likely I won't very often, as my car isn't a daily and doesn't really see much inclement weather.

                              they look great.

                              is the stormtrooper just the head from a lego man?
