Default New pics w/ some before and after shots.

Below: This pic shows my old wheels. "Foofighter" is selling these wheels, so if you're interested shoot him an email. I believe it is w/o the Yoko AVS'.

Another pic, although not that great of a pic:

Pics w/ 9-spoke 17" sport wheels. Went to this set-up mainly for better ride quality and performance. djnelson and others interested: These pics were in a low-light setting so the car definitely looks lower than it really is. The car is on lowest perch setting up front and one up from lowest on the rear. This is with OEM sport springs. You should definitely consider the Neuspeed sport springs w/ the N/Stein's for a little further drop b/c the ride quality is not going to be that much more drastic; I've ridden in one.

This is an old pic of "Zuma4's" car, and he has the Neu. sport springs on the lowest perch settings. I don't know if anyone can tell the difference from this pic, but his car is definitely lower and the ride comfort is comparable.

What sort of wheels are your old ones? They're pretty sharp.

Swapped w/ Foofighter b/c he wanted winter wheels (he also has 19" CH's and we live in Socal, so go figure...) and wanted a set of track wheels that would clear his StopTech's, but they ended up not fitting by like 2 mm.
