            I'm not sure about the rates, I just told GC it was going to be a street vert but I wanted it stiffer than normal so they told me what I needed. Just tell them how you are going to use the car and they will give you the right set up.

            The rims are BBS RS 070 15x7 ET16 fronts (those are stock lips) and 15x7.5 ET10 rears. 1.5in lip up front, 2in in the back.

            Got the rears put in this morning, I just updated the first post with the pics. Going to take the front down a few more turns and it looks like I'm going to have to roll the rear fenders.

                        Hey Danny the car is looking great. The difference a drop can make. Its like Day/Night. But do you think the Car will make it out your driveway.

                          I can go alot lower. I bottomed out the adjuster and went up I think 16 turns on each side. Rears I went up 9 turns after they started catching threads on the adjuster.

                          Probably not man, but I'll figure something out.

                              throw some small spacers in the back so your wheels are more flush -- then it'll look PERFECT.

                                You think? I think I'm flush enough, plus I'm practically rubbing and I want to go lower. After I roll my fenders if there is enough room I'll put on some spacers. I have some 3mm spacers too.

                                Got my smoked MHWs in the mail today! Going to install them now and update the thread.
