Bilstein sports/ IEs3 and drophats
No spacers at the moment (the rear can use a 5-8mm spacers with no problems)

^^ i spent some time looking for new tires bacause my rear 215/45 615s just gave up from the inside. I was debating between the kdws, toyo r1r and these nexens, i didnt go with the kdws because i read lots of reveiws that they are noisy noisy noisy, the r1r too pricey and this is the 3rd set if tires i put on in less than 2 years, so i had no justification with the wifey to spend $800 on tires when my front azenis are still brand new. Thats why i went with the nexens, after i read the reviews of them as excellent tires and run wider and higher than same size/different brand tires, and as my first set of tires where nexens n3000 too I loved them. The whole thing was $356 mounted, balanced and new valves.
"N2MYE30", the trim is there, cant you seee it?? Thats not my problem :P check your eyes..
That looks great. Those Nexen tires are great for the price too, I have them on my S50 car. They run a little wide for their size which is nice. :)
Odd I thought just the opposite, thought they ran small. Had them on my 17" ACS and the tread was narrow vs the Summotimo's that were on the other two. Either way OP the car look great.
Looks great I think I get mine mounted today. If they come in. 16's look so much better. Im looking forward to losing the euroweaves for the ACS and some 225's

Your car will look much prettier with the 16's in the corner of your driveway covered in dirt.
